about

Album: Not for Sale

The 5:4 beat owes everything to Paul Desmond's "Take Five".

lyrics

abruptly I wake in the dark, my senses have come alive
with you so close beside me I am touched by the spark of desire
the heat of your breath on my shoulder sets my whole body alight
suddenly I’m burning, I’m burning, I burn in an ocean of fire

only in your arms can I find release, so please, take me away
no rain can cool me, no potion can cure me
‘cause I’m in a fever

this might be just a story of ships that pass in the night
but you are here close beside me and your touch is sending me higher
like a sailor alone on a sinking ship, alone in the hurricane’s eye
I need you, I need you to save me, for I drown in waves of desire

only in your arms can I find release, so please, take me away
no rain can cool me, no potion can cure me
‘cause I’m in a fever

with you so close beside me, I’m washed by waves of desire
I’m burning, I’m burning, I burn, I burn in an ocean of fire
Oh I’m in a fever
Oh I’m in a fever
