The Roof (Back In Time)

Mariah Carey

But it was definitely a little misty on That warm November night And my heart was pounding My inner voice resounding Begging me to turn away But I just had to see your face To feel alive And then you casually walked in the room And I was twisted in the web Of my desire for you My apprehension blew away I only wanted you To taste my sadness As you kissed me in the dark Every time I feel the need I envision you caressing me And go back in time To relive the splendor of you and I On the rooftop that rainy night... And so we finished the Möet And started feeling liberated And I surrendered as you took me In your arms I was so caught up in the moment I couldn't bear to let you go yet So I threw caution to the wind And started listening to my longing heart And then you softly pressed your lips To mine And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed For such a long long time And for a while I forgot The sorrow and the pain And melted with you as we stood There in the rain Every time I feel the need I envision you caressing me And go back in time To relive the splendor of you and I On the rooftop that rainy night... Last night I dreamed that I Whispered the words I love you And touched you so very Subtly as we were kissing Goodbye (Pretty baby - How I'm missing you) Every time I feel the need I envision you caressing me And go back in time To relive the splendor of you and I On the rooftop that rainy night... --- The Roof (Back In Time) - Mariah Carey
