Every night's the same
You come home feeling down
After you've been out
Shaking all over town
Do you think that I can
Sit around while you play?
If you don't feed the fire
There ain't no flame
Party lights, empty nights
Won't keep my lovelight burning
I need your body heat
Next to me
To keep my lovelight burning
You've got to keep my lovelight burning
Yeah
Used to be we were out
Making love in the rain
You come on to me
Like a hurricane
Now it seems your love isn't getting enough
Maybe its much too weak to fill my cup
You know party lights, empty nights
Won't keep my lovelight burning
I need your body heat
Next to me
Keep my lovelight burning
Party lights, empty nights
Won't keep my lovelight burning
I need your body heat
Next to me
To keep my lovelight burning yeah
Keep my lovelight burning
You've got to keep my lovelight burning
Party lights, empty nights
Won't keep my lovelight burning
I need your body heat
Next to me
To keep my lovelight burning yeah
You've got to keep my lovelight burning
You've got to keep my lovelight burning
