Feed the Flame
You light the fire,
and I’ll feed the flame
Spark the first kiss,
and I’ll keep stoking it
Hold me closer than close,
don’t let this hot desire cool down
Baby, don’t let the fire go out ...
give more oxygenated breath in each shout
Let our embers of passion carry us up from the ground
Just keep feeding the flame,
throw more love matches into the pyre
And I’ll keep doing the same,
pouring more love fluid unto the fire
As our sizzling hearts melt into one,
ashes to ashes
will be the only way to pull us apart
When the night smoke rises, meeting the morning sun ...
strike the matches,
to reignite the fire still smouldering in our heart
So warm together, we remember last night:
How you lit the fire,
and how I fed the flame
It was the first night
we both had the same name
Now together we light the fire,
we feed the flame
We got such a burning desire
for each other’s name
