Oh, don't you know
the fever comes again
Pulsating, primitive,
as it just takes me
A want born of passion
becomes a primeval need,
gnawing at the very fabric
of reason and sensibilities,
for they won't play a part
on this stage tonight
Desire has triumphed,
and its head is full
Rhythms cascade, rippling
within my body and soul,
begging, yearning for release
My heart pounds, and my nerves
are fiercely raw with anticipation
The electricity has permeated me,
and my blood runs quick and hot
Dance with unabated passion,
pulsate with abandonment, and
feel the power of the sweltering heat
come into your being like a crimson fire
Touch me, kiss me, take me
Ride with me like a storm
Let your voice give witness
to your unbridled passion
Ohhh
Oh yes
Rise and fall
with the tides
Surging
Bursting
Exploding
As the fountainhead
opens up
Willingly
Needfully
Pulsatingly
Let go
and come
for that which
must be
