It was long after midnight
When we got to unconditional love
She said, Sure, my heart is boundless
But dont push my limits too far
I said, If love was so transcendent
I dont understand these boundaries
She said, Just dont disappoint me
You know how complex women are
Ill be around
If you dont let me down too far
Ill be around
If you dont let me down
It was just before sunrise
When we started on traditional roles
She said, Sure, Ill be your partner
But dont make too many demands
I said, If love has these conditions
I dont understand those songs you love
She said, This is not a love song
This isnt fantasyland
Dont go too far
A phosphorescent wave on a tropical sea is a cold fire
Dont cross the line
The pattern of moonlight on the bedroom floor is a cold fire
Dont let me down
The flame at the heart of a pawnbrokers diamond is a cold fire
Dont break the spell
The look in your eyes as you head for the door is a cold fire
Ill be around
If you dont push me down too far
Ill be around
If you dont push me down
Love is blind if you are gentle
Love can turn to a long, cold burn...
