We stood on Sandy Avenue Two lovers broken by the rain This fiery love we tried to leave But still the coals remain Your touch it played my skin that night Like a burning violin I was strung out on your tune A lover's h**n We tried so very hard to get this love to grow But I could not hold your crazy wind Which never ceased to blow And you lit a candle in my soul That singes to this day And even though it burns me so I can not walk away Darling, darling, let me tell you true There's something burning In my heart because of you Darling, darling, oh, this fire it grew
And now it's burning In my heart because of you A gust of Indian summer wind Wrapped confusion ‘round the night The stars told me to kiss you The moon warned to take flight And when I thought to leave you Temptation played its part A dancing swarm of drunken bees Put honey in our hearts We looked so very hard for the steps To dance among the stones But we tripped into the shadows Made of sparks and bones And when I sought to hold you In the cracks you slipped between And when I tried to cool this fever The water turned to steam
