LYRIC FOR SALE

By Pete Z

The flame of desire flickers and burns
from under the skin
It excites a feeling from deep within

The flesh trembles and warms
to the touch as the heart pounds
and misses a beat

Eyes that were once strangers
engage in a frenzy of wild haste
and abandon as the passion erupts,
sending the blood racing
and manicured hands searching
for new found heights

It is the undisputed king
The flame as it flickers
from under the skin; and
for the moment it triggers the emotion,
letting loose some new sensation:
the flesh hotting up, throbbing, warming,
burning, caressing, reaching its peak

Oh this power and passion thing
that lurks and lingers from deep within
The temperature needs cooling down
It is the desire that turns on the heat...
