Peggy Lee, Gordon Jenkins & His Orchestra - Lover Lyrics

Lover, when I'm near you
And I hear you speak my name
Softly in my ear you breathe a flame

Lover, it's immoral
But why quarrel with our bliss
When two lips have quarreled want to kiss?

I say "The devil is in you"
And to resist you I try
But if you didn't continue I would die

Lover, please be tender
When your tender fears depart
Lover, please surrender to my heart

Lover, when you near me
And I hear you speak my name
Softly in my ear you breathe a flame

Lover, it's immoral
But why quarrel with our bliss
When two lips have quarreled want to kiss?

I say "The devil is in you"
And to resist you I try
But if you didn't continue I would die

Lover, lover, please be tender
When your tender fears depart
Lover, please surrender to my heart

Lover, when you near me
And I hear you speak my name
Softly, softly, in my ear you breathe, you breathe, you breathe a flame

Lover, it's immoral
But why quarrel with our bliss
When two lips have quarreled want to kiss?

I say "The devil is in you"
And to resist you I try
But if you didn't continue I would die

Lover, please be tender
When your tender fears depart
Lover, please surrender to my heart
Surrender
Surrender
Lover
