Fire and Desire

I guess I think we both said a little too much today
It was pain before pleasure
That was my claim to fame
With every measure, baby
Tasted teardrop stains, yeah
Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar

You know it's funny how a man can change
Remember how I use to do that
Fire and desire, fire and desire
Oh, how I thank you, baby, you taught me so much

Remember when I used to
And it's a little different then it was when I was with you
Oh, that was my claim to fame
I wasn't, I wasn't very nice, I know
(What is it, baby?)

And you turned on
Remember when you used to

And you burn me up within your flame
Made me live again
Then I laid eyes on you
(You turned on, you turned on)
You know, I've got a new lady now
Then I laid eyes on you

I was cold as ice long ago, baby, baby
That's what I used to do
And you showed me so much love and sensitivity
Use and abuse them

(You burn me, you burn me)
But please do me a favor just before you go
(I wanna hold you tight)
Well, I've just been doin' the same ol' thing I've always been doin'
Everything, everything, everything is gonna be alright

You know
Then I kissed your lips
(Fire, oh, baby)
Sugar, sugar, sugar
Put your arms around me
(No)
I must have been crazy then
With every measure
Just put your arms around me and hold me like you used
Then I kissed your lips
You turned on my fire baby
You turned on my fire
I think of how you changed me with your love and sensitivity

Thinkin' he's God gift to women
Tell me, "Rick, everything is gonna be alright"
Put your arms around me
That since you've been gone
And you burn me up within your flame
I guess life must be treating you well
My fire, baby
You know, I think back to when we met
Love them and leave them
Then you showed me what a love could do

So quickly from a cold blooded person

You were cold as ice long ago, baby, baby

Took me a little higher
I wasn't very, very, very nice, you know
After all Tee, you're kind of with somebody else
And we're both to blame, both to blame
Then you showed me what a love could do
Fire and desire, fire and desire
Use them and abuse them
I don't think I've ever felt this way before
Love them and leave them
Tasted your teardrop stains, yeah
Feel it comin' through
Oh, me?
You turned on my fire, baby
Oh, that's what I used to do
The way I use to be and the cold way I use to act but more than that

I'm kind of livin' with somebody
Feelin' good to you
(Feelin' good to you)
And I thank you, baby

And you tuned on my fire, baby

It was pain before pleasure
Fire and desire, baby
