Cold Fire

Cold fire, it's a cold fire, it's a cold fire, it's a cold fire

It was long after midnight when we got to unconditional love
She said, "Sure, my heart is boundless but don't push my limits too far"
I said, "If love is so transcendent I don't understand these boundaries"
She said, "Just don't disappoint me you know how complex women are"

I'll be around if you don't let me down too far
I'll be around if you don't let me down

It was just before sunrise when we started on traditional roles
She said, "Sure, I'll be your partner but don't make too many demands"
I said, "If love has these conditions
I don't understand those songs you love"
She said, "This is not a love song, this isn't fantasy land"

Don't go too far
A phosphorescent wave on a tropical sea is a cold fire
Don't cross the line
The pattern of moonlight on the bedroom floor is a cold fire

Don't let me down
The flame at the heart of a pawnbroker's diamond is a cold fire
Don't break the spell
The look in your eyes as you head for the door is a cold fire

I'll be around if you don't push me down too far
I'll be around if you don't push me down
I'll be around if you don't push me down too far
I'll be around if you don't push me down

Don't go too far
A phosphorescent wave on a tropical sea is a cold fire
Don't cross the line
The pattern of moonlight on the bedroom floor is a cold fire

Don't let me down
The flame at the heart of a pawnbroker's diamond is a cold fire
Don't break the spell
The look in your eyes as you head for the door is a cold fire

I'll be around if you don't let me down too far
I'll be around if you don't let me down
I'll be around if you don't push me down too far
I'll be around if you don't push me down
I'll be around if you don't let me down

Love is blind if you are gentle, love can turn to a long, cold burn
