Turn down the lights

Baby come close

I wanna talk to you

Oh Lover come here

In the heat of the heat

Passion can burn just as brightly

As the fireside

Or hot candle wax

Or the summer sunshine on your back

I had my eyes wide open from the start

I knew you'd be the only lover here in my heart

But something told me do what you feel

It's got to be real

I know that I was gonna love you, baby

But I never thought that it would be so rich

Love was deep as any ocean

And it just turns on and on

[Chorus:]

Baby, I'm on fire (fire)

Burning for you

I'm on fire (fire)

Ye-earning for you

Deep inside your fire

Where flames turn blue

I'm burning hot for you baby

Ah, soft music plays

And angels don't lie

And if love is truly blind

Then lover be kind

In my dreams I have dared to take you where no one else has gone

To bed and firesides and concerts by the sea

To a place where rivers rush inside of you and me

Oh wee baby just you and me, yes

I had my eyes wide open right from the start

I know you'd be the only lover here in my heart

But something told me do what you feel

This love is real

And I knew that I was gonna love you, baby, baby, baby

But I never thought that it could be

I never thought that love could be so rich

Deep as any ocean, and it just turns on and on

[Chorus]

You got me burning, yearning

And I'm on fire by desire

You got me burning up

Don't you stop

I'm burning in your flame, say my name

I'm burning up hot

Baby I don't wanna stop

Give me every single drop

Give me all you got.

[2x]

[Chorus]

[Fade]
