The blood is surging through my veins,
my feelings never tire
As if you caused desire to burn,
and turned my love to fire
I feel the heat as you walk in,
my temperature starts to rise
Flush of face no turning back,
and no way to disguise
I touch your arm then start to melt,
the inferno starts to rage
A better chance I might have,
locked up in a cage
You call to me I must obey,
for now I am in a blaze
My passions flow, a wanton lust;
mind left in a haze
My time is now to taste your love,
so hot there’s no relief
In the end for what I search
would be our inner peace
