What's the Point?

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 3 months ago 2 min read

Verse 1

Late-night whispers, tangled in sheets,

In the glow of the moonlight, it's where our hearts meet.

But if there’s no warmth, if it’s just a dance,

What’s the point in this game I don't want to play?

Pre-Chorus

We could share a moment, feel the rush of the night,

But without holding close, it just doesn’t feel right.

Why chase fleeting feelings if we can’t hold on tight?

Tell me, where’s the magic if there’s no love in sight?

Chorus

What’s the point of sleeping with someone,

If you don’t want to wrap your arms around them all night long?

In the silence, the tenderness calls,

Let’s make it more than just a moment; let’s make our love be strong.

What's the point? Baby, what's the point?

Verse 2

I crave your heartbeat, your laughter, your light,

A connection that lasts, through the darkest of nights.

But if it’s just bodies, drifting apart,

Why not chase the warmth and ignite the heart?

Pre-Chorus

Let’s lose ourselves in the rhythm we make,

Feel the world fade away; this is ours to take.

Why settle for shadows when we can be real?

Hold me close and quiet; let our hearts feel.

Chorus

What’s the point of sleeping with someone,

If you don’t want to wrap your arms around them all night long?

In the silence, the tenderness calls,

Let’s make it more than just a moment; let’s make our love be strong.

What's the point? Baby, what's the point?

Verse 3

So speak to me softly, let your heart confide,

In this beautiful chaos, let’s not try to hide.

For every gentle touch, and every soft sigh,

What’s the point of sleeping if we don’t let love fly?

Chorus

What’s the point of sleeping with someone,

If you don’t want to wrap your arms around them all night long?

In the silence, the tenderness calls,

Let’s make it more than just a moment; let’s make our love be strong.

What's the point? Baby, what's the point?
