lyrics

There's a warm glow from the candles
That I see reflected in your eyes
So tell me you love me while you look into mine
And all sorts of other sweet lies
The memory of him might still linger
But tonight, tonight you're all mine
She's a lifetime away where I left her
And this hunger's eating me alive

I want to do right
But you're here tonight
And leaving's the last thing
I've got on my mind
I want to be strong
But I can't carry on
Just bearing this flame
I'm burning away
Burning away

The taste of your first kiss sends shivers
Each time I close my eyes
I know that I should know better
But it's too late to turn back this time
Waves of your love wash me over
Like storm driven waves on the sand
And just as I sink below the water
You reach out and you take my hand

I want to do right
But you're here tonight
And leaving's the last thing
I've got on my mind
I want to be strong
But I can't carry on
Just bearing this flame
I'm burning away
Burning away

I want to do right
But you're here tonight
And leaving's the last thing
I've got on my mind
I want to be strong
But I can't carry on
Just carrying your flame
I'm burning away
Burning away
