In the darkness all alone,
deep inside the night,
halfway around the hidden world,
secret is my light.
Love sleeps in deep caress,
but me I sigh and mourn,
the fever growing in my
flesh and fire in my bones.
I...
Here I toss and here I turn and walk the floor all night.
Here I found a soaking sheet, baby I'd cry.
Some say need and some say lust,
I say love alone.
So much love my soul's aflame and burned down to the bone.
I... Baby,
baby, baby, baby.
I... Oh, baby.
I... Oh, I... I...
Lay my bones on the riverbank
and set them off to fire.
Give me to my baby, Lord, the ashes of desire.
I... Baby, baby, baby, baby.
I... Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I...
Come on, baby.
