Yes first I gave him the bit of seedcake out of my mouth
And it was leap year like now yes
Sixteen years ago my God after that long kiss I near lost my breath
Yes he said I was a flower of the mountain
Yes so we are flowers all a woman's body yes

Stepping out of the page
Into the sensual world
Stepping out, off the page,
Into the sensual world

And Gibraltar as a girl where I was a Flower of the mountain
Yes when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used
Or shall I wear a red yes
And how he kissed me under the Moorish wall
And I thought well as well him as another

Stepping out of the page
Into the sensual world
Stepping out, off the page,
Into the sensual world

And then I asked him with my eyes to ask again
Yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my mountain flower
And first I put my arms around him yes
And drew him down to me so he could feel my breath
All perfume yes and his heart was going like mad
And yes I said yes I will yes.
Ooo yes
