I shut my eyes and you're not there, the world disappearsAnd I have controlI open them up again and my pulse acceleratesAnd my blood runs coldYou won't return my gaze, you won't acknowledge my stareI'm pleading silently, please remember meChorus:You, enshrinedYou on fire, filling my mindWith smoke and flameYou unknown, only your nameAnd a near forgotten, hasty touch of lipsOf fingertipsAnd the seeds are sownI close my eyes and hold my breath and pray for the groundTo swallow me wholeI stand completely still while desire and fearBattle for my soulI don't have anything I wouldn't give awayTo draw you into me, possess you completelyChorusYou enshrinedYou on fire, filling my mindWith smoke and flameYou unknown, only your nameAnd a near forgotten, hasty touch of lipsOf fingertipsAnd the seeds are sownYou, sublimeYou outside of space and timeAre standing thereYou untouched and unawareThat someone so close is burning in your nameA secret flameAnd wanting you so muchI think I must be mad, I cannot concentrateOn anything but you, there's nothing I can doChorus
