Fire in the night
Casts a golden shadow
On your skin

Your eyes are a glorious sight
Your soul
Burns deep within

A sad smile
Plays upon your face
As you think
Of yesterday

She came to you
In fine black lace
And you took her
In many ways

But she left you
Way into the night
As you lay
Sleeping

Never to be within
Your sight
Oh, how you felt
Like weeping

Your heart hardened
Like a stone
From that day
Forward

Walls built
High in defense
As you walked
Ever onward

Fire in the night
Suddenly she is upon you
Touching your beautiful
Face

Causing deep
Emotions
To burn
Within you

As you look
Into her eyes
A reflection of you
Is cast

She softly kisses
Your lips
Then your fingertips
Promising a love
That will last
