Flamethrower

I’ve got your light blinding me
And I cannot stop staring
I’ve got your love drowning me
‘cos my heart won’t stop stirring

Your burning flame in my hands
And I’m never putting it out
I’ve got your passion in my plans
And I’m not taking milk stout

I want to capture how you move
But I cannot decide on your best side
To partner you when you groove
You’re dancing circles around my heart

I want to know what goes on..
In your mind and in your heart
You’re an enigma and my agony
But you always catch me in the act

You sometimes leave me confused
Talking in your sleep before you wakeup
'cos your dreams are so huge
I need a mind map just to keep up

You’re a captured free spirit 
In the centre of a beautiful flower
But only because you choose to be
'cos you love like a flamethrower
