It all started
Like the flicker of a candle
Just a warm hello
A casual drink or two
From a friendly talk
Into a cozy corner
Then like a house afire
The flame just grew and grew
To a secret room
Under names we've never heard of
And the world outside
Is now our least concern
The flame we lit
Is much too hot to handle
We built the fire
Now, darling, let it burn
Let it burn
Till the flame can grow no higher
Till this crazy wild desire
Won't return
The flame we lit
Is much too hot to handle
We built the fire
Now, darling, let it burn
Let it burn
Till the flame can grow no higher
Till this crazy wild desire
Won't return
The flame we lit
Is much too hot to handle
We built the fire
Now, darling, let it burn
We built the fire
Now, darling, let it burn
