Now if you love me, please don't tease
If I can hold, well, then let me squeeze
My heart goes 'round and 'round
My love comes tumblin' down
You leave me, ahh, breathless, ahh
Well, I shake all over and you know why
I'm sure it's love, honey, it ain't no lie
'Cause when you call my name
You know I burn like wooden flame

it was a burning house of love

Before you slip into unconsciousness
I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss
The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time we ran was too insane
We'll meet again; we'll meet again
Oh, tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather die; I'd rather ...

When it's you that my arms are calling to

Crowded fifty to a room
There's too many rats in this cage of the world
And the women know their place
They sit home and write letters
And when they visit once a year
Well they both just sit there and stare
See how we are
Gotta keep bars in between us
See how we are
We only sing about it once in every twenty years
See how we are
Oh see how we are
Now there are seven kinds of Coke

There are men lost in jail
Crowded fifty to a room

See how we are
Gotta keep bars in between us

Well, the clock says it's time to close now
I guess I'd better go now
I'd really like to stay here all night
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes
Street lights share their hollow glow
Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise
Still one place to go
Still one place to go
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out and I'll wander, baby

?Sugarlight, we?re addicts?
Why do you think we came
He?s pasting gold leaches
On my arm
We sharpen up our teeth
White sugar
He speaks French
Memorizing torsos
He?s open throated
In the corner
Hands arrive at hands
My arm is tied off waiting
To burn it down
Sugarlight, sugarlight
I can?t believe
Swallowing one bulb after another
In the city of electric light
Sugarlight, sugarlight
I can?t beli...

just so that you can get a look at us
and figure out if we're worth you paid.

higher and higher
Dawn comes soon enough

How does it feel?
