Teach My Body

(album: Jonny - 2023)

Oh darling, I wanna give you more
But my body keeps the score
I need to build from the inside
Emerge from the inside

And I want to be pointless and free with you
But there's a combination we have to unlock
With the right kisses
With the right touches
With the right movements
Oh, your beautiful movements

You are the father and the son
Ooh, only in you I believe, I believe

And I'm sorry when my body isn't ready
There are things that have happened long ago
But if we're gentle, we'll heal these insecurities
I promise you, I can give you everything
Just teach my body
Oh, help me, teach my body

Oh darling, I don't believe in God
Mostly because of what's happened in my life
There's still a child that lives on the inside
Still hurts on the inside

My deepest wish is to rest in your arms
The sweetest refuge where no one can hurt me
And it'll take courage
All of my courage
And some tenderness
Oh, your beautiful tenderness

You are the father and the son
Ooh, only in you I believe, I believe

And I'm sorry when my body isn't ready
There are things that have happened long ago
But if we're gentle, we'll heal these insecurities
I promise you, I can give you everything
Just teach my body

The oldest comforts I know starve me of love
But with you, but with you, but with you I can throw them away
Oh, fill me up softly with your love
I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you
I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you
I'm with you, I'm with you
I'm with you!
I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you
I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you, I'm with you

And I'm sorry when my body isn't ready
There are things that have happened long ago
But if we're gentle, we'll heal these insecurities
Oh, I promise you, I can give you everything
Just teach my body
Oh, help me, teach my body
Oh, help me, teach my body
Oh, my body
