Incubus of Love Lyrics

You don't have to call me, I've got your number
But you won't see me 'til you slumber
Think of us, a blackbird and a dove
Oh, let me be your incubus of love

If Madame is feeling cautious
Drift into the arms of Morpheus
And link us like the hand is to the glove
Oh. let me be your incubus of love

I'm going to come for you
Like a thief in the nighttime
(He's going to creep up to your side)
I'm going to bring relief to you at the right time
(There's no place that you can hide)
Oh, let me be the one you're thinking of
Oh, let me be your incubus of love

I'll be yours until Aurora
Lights the morning with her aura
That rosy-fingered nimbus from above
Oh, let me be your incubus of love

(He's going to come for you
Like a thief in the nighttime)
I'm going to creep up to your side
(He's going to bring relief to you at the right time)
There's no place that you can hide
Oh, let me be the one you're thinking of
Oh, let me be your incubus of love
Oh, let me be your incubus of love
