Making Love Alone 
Bernadette Peters, Sam Haris.
By Marilyn Miller and Cheryl Hardwick
(additional/altered lyrics by S Harris)
Enjoy a little too much information... and bring a kleenex!
verse:
A log thrown on the fire,
Two profiles meet as one
The igniting of desire in the air
But when there's just one profile and yet desire grows
Despite the fact there's no one else to care.
Must romance be abandoned as it's fanning it's own flame?
Raging to burst full blown? No.

                              ------>
There's a certain kind of bliss not engendered by a kiss
Surreptitiously indulged, though more well known.
For when one cannot make love with another one can still make love alone
Song:

There's a certain special magic
To the touch of your own hand
And the burning thrill, knowing that you will for sure soon be feeling grand
And that tender swell of rapture you don't have to try to postpone
That's what it's like when you're Making Love Alone

Oh the sweet sweet sound of your own breathing when there's no one else you have to please
With the carefree fact that you can't contract those pesky STD's
It's the kind of love that fits hand in glove and takes like a dog to a bone
That's what it's like when you're making love alone.

No need to stifle every passionate shout you emit when about to arrive
You settle back and feel the constant devotion of one touch of lotion
And shift into overdrive --- All by myself!
It's so simpler to feel the admiration and satisfaction of your own size
There's no small talk or clumsy conversation and rarely tearful goodbyes
When there's no one there, there's a casual flare to casting off seeds unsown
Cause the date who can't see their face is the one who knows all the right places
You're the guest of the best of your own testosterone  (roll the 'R')
Due to the simple magic of making love, Not taking, faking or mistaking love,
But the simple magic of making love alone (Save on calogne!)
That's what it's like when you're making love alone (Ask Patti Lupone!)
That's what it's like when you're making love alone (Ask Melissa and Joan!)
That's what it's like when you're making love aloooooooooone!
(I'm not done yet!) ooooooone!
