Fire And Desire

Wow, it's really good to see you again, baby

And I must admit you're looking very, very, very nice these days

I guess life must be treating you well, oh, me

Well, I've just been doin' the same ol' thing I've always been doin'

You know, I've got a new lady now

And it's a little different then it was when I was with you

You know, I think back to when we met

The way I use to be and the cold way I used to act

But more than that

I think of how you changed me

With your love and sensitivity

Remember when I used to

Love them and leave them

That's what I used to do

Use and abuse them

Then I laid eyes on you

It was pain before pleasure

That was my claim to fame

With every measure, baby

Tasted teardrop stains, yeah

I was cold as ice long ago, baby, baby

I wasn't very, very, very nice, you know

Sugar, sugar, sugar

Then I kissed your lips

And you tuned on my fire, baby

And you burn me up within your flame

Took me a little higher

Made me live again

You turned on my fire, baby

Then you showed me what a love could do

Fire and desire, baby

Feel it comin' through

And I thank you, baby

Oh, how I thank you, baby

You taught me so much

And you showed me so much and love and insensitivity

That since you've been gone

I don't think I've ever felt this way before

You know it's funny how a man can change

So quickly from a cold blooded person

Thinkin' he's God gift to women

Remember how I used to do that

I must have been crazy then

Remember when you used to

Love them and leave them

Oh, that's what I used to do

Use them and abuse them, whoa

Then I laid eyes on you

It was pain before pleasure

Oh, that was my claim to fame

With every measure

Tasted your teardrop stains, yeah

You were cold as ice, baby, baby

(Woo, hoo, hoo, hoo)

(I, I wasn't, I, I wasn't very nice, I know, woo)

Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar

Then I kissed your lips

And you turned on

(You turned on, you turned on)

(You turned on my fire)

My fire, baby

(Ooh)

Then you showed me what a love could do

(Woo, hoo)

Fire and desire

(Fire and desire)

Feelin' good to you

(Feelin' good to you)

You turned on my fire, baby

(Fire, ooh, ooh)

(Oh, baby)

And you burn me up within your flame

(You burn me, you burn me)

Fire and desire

(Fire and desire)

And were both to blame, both to blame

(Ooh, ooh)

You know, I guess I think we both said a little too much today

(No, ooh, hoo, hoo)

After all tee, you're kind of with somebody else

I'm kind of livin' with somlivinebody

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

But please do me a favor just before you go

(What is it, baby)

Just put your arms around me and hold me like you used

(I wanna hold you tight)

Tell me: Rick, everything is gonna be alright

(Everything, everything, everything is gonna be alright)

Put your arms around me

Put your arms around me

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Oh, baby

(Woo, ooh, ooh)

Oh, baby

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh)
