We would sweat and moan
Until the need in us was gone
In one another's arms
All through the night
You would cry out my name
As we were drawn into the flames
What will I do now
Now that you're gone?
What will I do
In the dead of the night
When she turns out the light
And she comes to me
When she comes to me?
Oh, what will I do
Till the need in me subsides?
Simply close my eyes
And try to sleep
Oh, there are nights, I know
When the lights are way, down low
I can feel you
Reaching out to me
So I close my eyes
And I let my mem'ry fly
To a time and place with you
So long ago. So long ago
Oh, what will I do
In the dead of the night
When she turns out the lights
When she comes to me
When she comes to me?
Oh, what will I do
Till the need in me subsides?
Simply close my eyes
And try to sleep
And try to sleep
[Fade.]
Try to sleep
