Minor Indulgences

Some music to set the mood? Something Valentine's ish? Most likely a song no one has ever heard of, but it's been stuck in my head for a couple of weeks. For tofani :)



Robert Moore and the Wildcats - Minor Indulgences
-------

I've felt pleasure so serious
I've been way past delerious
I've pampered the most remote request
But these are just minor indulgences
They're trifle, dull instances
Compared to your love, it's your love that's the best

For breakfast today
I sip my cafe au lait
After I ate all the plates meant for three
I had a nice little lunch
A couple of hours after brunch
And plenty of time for my afternoon cookies and tea

And then for dinner last night
I ate a gourmet delight
Fantastic feast by a chef from Paree
And to top it all off
Lest they call me a sloth
I had to dance and drink cocktails 'til three

But these minor indulgences
Just pleasures to please my senses
Can't relate to the great stimulation of seein' you there
These minor indulgences
Just sensations that soothe my senses
Don't equate to the way that I feel when you tell me you care

I have powdered and puffed
Til I've had quite enough
I've had notions and potions galore
I've drank Chateau Lafite
While getting a massage on my feet
I've been sated and I've still called for more

I've been on high flying flights
At forbiddenous heights
I've reveled in erogenous rush
I've seen sensual sights
I've delved in delights
To depths that make a sexologist blush

But these minor indulgences
Just titillations to tease my tenseness
Can't relate to the great stimulation of seein' you there
These minor indulgences
Just pleasures to please my senses
Don't equate to the great way I feel when you tell me you care

Oh baby, I know it's a cliche
But it's really true what they say
About the best things in life bein' free
Like the light in your eyes
The way I think I've won a prize
Just to see ya smilin' at me

And honey, when we touch
You know it pleases me so much
It's like a heavy heatin' of some overdose
Oh, there's not treasure I could own
No pleasure ever known
To match the thrill that I feel when you're close

I've been to a Hollywood gala
Box seats at La Scala
I took a Lear to the coast just to see the sun set
I've skied Aspen and Vail
Been for a swim with a whale
I've got a trainer to help me to sweat

I've sailed on three storied yachts
After a night at the slots
I've got threads by Versachi and Brooks
I've been from Santa Luchia
To Seoul, South Korea
To all night sessions with jazz is what cooks

But these minor indulgences
Are just pleasures to please my senses
Can't relate to the great stimulation of seein' you there
These minor indulgences
Oh, just sensations that soothe my senses
Don't equate to the great way I feel when you tell me you care
