We know it's wrong to let this fire burn between us
|
We've got to stop this wild desire in you and in me
|
So we'll let the flame burn once again until the thrill is gone
|
Then we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning.
|
We're two people caught up in the flame that has to die down soon
|
I didn't mean to start this fire and neither did you
|
So tonight when you hold me tight we'll let the fire burn on
|
And we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning.
|

[Instrumental]
|
|
Each time when we meet we both agree that it's for the last time
|
But out of your arms I'm out of my mind
|
So we'll taste the thrill of stolen love tonight until the dawning
|
And we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning.
|
Yes, we'll taste the thrill of stolen love tonight until the dawning
|
And we'll sweep out the ashes we'll sweep out the ashes
|
We'll sweep out the ashes in the morning...
