Heartsleeve saw him walk in
She gave her cat's canary grin
as she studied him to the bar

He didn't get far
before he felt those eyes
like butterflies
drawn to nectar
How long would it take her
he thought
and had two drinks bought

He wore leather, tattoos and a battle scar
leaned up all bad ass against the bar
like a statue carved from stone
'cause he never leaves alone
She's seen him here before
Always walking out the door
with a hottie on his arm
"So what's the harm"
purred her pride
as she strutted over to his side
She ordered a drink
and then gave him her wink

He caught the old bartender's eye
and said, ”I' ll buy”.
And thinking, “damn she was quick!”
and, “this one really twists the wick.”
He slowly looked her over toe to head
her face flushing a cool red
when he looked deep in her eyes

She felt hot butterflies
where ever his eyes grazed her skin
She could not begin
to pretend he hadn't aroused her
Those eyes...her face getting hotter...
Finally his eyes let her go ...
and she uncurled a toe
took a deep breath of air
and tried not to stare
at his guns or his fly
and from embarrassment die

He couldn't help but grin
at the shape that she was in
She hadn't grown jaded
her fires hadn't faded
She made him feel
like she was for real
Not just style
And for awhile
she might make him feel warm
So what's the harm...
