I want to start a fire in your heart tonight.

Oh, tell me why do I so yearn to cause trouble?

I need you to be mine in the summertime,

when the days are long and the nights are slow and sweet.



But why do you turn and shield your eyes?

Do I burn too brightly?

Oh, don't take my love lightly, for I mean every word.



You flicker, you amaze me.

Your lips illuminate me.

I want your eyes to tell me I'm the only flame.

My glow; it will attract you, my smoke will push you back

Until you call again, please arsonist, attack.



But why do you turn and shield your eyes?

Do I burn too brightly?

Oh, don't take my love lightly, for I mean every word.



I'll just light the match,

And the flames will catch...



But why do you turn and shield your eyes?

Do I burn too brightly?

Oh, don't take my love lightly, for I mean every word.
