Solomon is grasping for words to describe his feelings about the woman, she is doing the same. They come up with all kinds of embarrassing things to say. If you've never done that you've never been in the rapture of love (and sex).

I'm not buying.

How could a guy with 300 wives and 700 concubines get so excited about that "one special girl?" I'm just sayin' ... tremendous incentive to make this "song" a little "bigger than life."
