People go by, I don't even know
I cry out, my love it up for sale
Can I interest you?
I stand on a dusty shelf
My eyes are closed
But I will come alive
Once you get to know me
Wrap me in your satin sheets
Hold me in forever
Take me underneath your wing
Give me the strength I came for
Wrap me in your satin sheets
Back here from the hall of fame
Of pre-love things
No one ever claims
I watch you
Your life is on the run
And mine stands still
I'll tend to your every pleasure
If you take me home
And I will come alive
Once I get to know you
Wrap me in your satin sheets
Hold me in forever
Take me underneath your wing
Give me the strength I came for
Everywhere I look I see
Broken hearts and misery
But here in your satin sheets
I'll be safe and warm ooh baby
Miles away from anywhere
Outside the rain is falling
I'm just a satin doll
Take me home and love me love me...
Wrap me in your satin sheets...
