God, I Crave You #NDC_Bingo [E5]

[Intro – low tremolo guitar, heartbeat kick, ambient wind swell, distant female sigh] [Verse 1 – half-spoken, slow slide guitar + dry snare rim taps] Said I’d be gentle But I never said kind Kissed her neck real slow With burning need behind Tasted her breath Like wine gone dry Left her lips all bruised Every time I took a bite [Verse 2 – beat builds with pulsing upright bass + bowed fiddle in background] Lord Forgive me I swore I was done But the night calls sweet And the flesh still runs I’d break my vows just to hear her moan Then leave her pale In the blood and bone [Chorus – full band kicks in, stomping drums, minor-key acoustic strums, background moans] And Baby I love you But God I crave you My heart is a graveyard deep Where we once touched light Now I only feed And I can’t tell what’s want or need Tell me what’s want or need [Instrumental – echo guitar solo, swirling lap steel, thunderclap FX under final chord] [Verse 3 – stripped back to fingerpicked guitar + heartbeat bass thump] Still see her glowing In that orchard moon Where her pulse called loud And I hummed her tune She said, “I trust you,” And I said, “Darlin’ — I never leave ‘em starved” Then I took a little piece of her heart [Chorus – darker, heavier — add low harmonies + ghostly backing vocals] And Baby I love you But God I crave you My heart is a graveyard deep Where we once touched light Now I only feed And I can’t tell what’s want or need Tell me what’s want or need [Bridge – whispered, warped FX over ambient drone + deep bowed strings] I dream in her voice Still red at the seams I wake with a hunger That steals from my dreams [Verse 4 – ambient textures return, sparse finger snaps + bowed strings] When I wore a smile She swore I was warm Now she sleeps cold In the curve of my arms She gave me grace But I kept score Now she’s quiet stone And I still want more I still want more [Outro – long fade with ambient echo, wind noise, soft vocal whisper repeating:] Delight… delight… delight… [Instrumental fade out]
