In the night it enchants me
Thoughts of her silky skin
There's a lightness of touch
Where she ends and where I begin
I'll be damned in the morning
'Least that is what they say
I'm a sinner
Yes a prisoner
To the kiss of a burning flame

I'll learn at the stake
My heart in my hand a venomous snake
Wrapped in the curve of my waist
I'd do it again just give me a taste
Don't know why I feel this way
But oh just a thought of a lick of the fire could cure me of anything
I'll take all of your shame

Baby take me higher
Soak me in desire
Won't you light my fire?
Make sure you keep me burning
So I know for certain
We were always worth it in the end

By the light of the morning
I'll bow my head to pray
Feel the Spirit
It invokes me
As I worship her where she lays
There's a faint, hollowed moaning
Stirring around the room
From the lips of an angel
At the turn of the afternoon

And I'll burn at the stake
My heart in my hand
A kiss of a snake
She keeps me in this state
And I'd do it again
Just give me a taste
Don't know why I feel this way
But oh just a thought of a lick of the fire could cure me of anything
I'll take all of you shame

Baby take me higher
Soak me in desire
Won't you light my fire
Make sure you keep me burning
So I know for certain
We were always worth it in the end

Oh, oh
Oooo, ah
Oooo, ah
Oooo ah, oooo ah, oooo ahah

Baby take me (oooo, ah)
Ta-ta-ta-ta-take me (oooo, ah)
Take-take-take me higher (higher, oooo, ah...)
Oooo, ah-ah

Take me higher
Soak me in desire
Won't you light my fire
Make sure you keep me burning
So I know for certain
We were always worth it in the end

Baby take me higher
Soak me in desire
Won't you light my fire
Make sure you keep me burning
So I know for certain
We were always worth it in the end
