When I come and I lay here In the circle of your arm, And I know that you love me, And would never mean me harm, Then I rest at last, And breathe you in. And a fire starts burning Up from within, Then I know how much I need you - That's when it will begin..
But it all goes up, Eventually, yeah ... Yes, it all goes up in smoke.
And you know That I need you And I will do you right, You don't need to be afraid, 'cause it all will turn out right...
But when it's all over, And still my body's throbbing Then the fear returns And I know somehow it's robbing Me of the peace I should feel 'Cause the release is real And yet it burns. Oh how it burns me!
And it all goes up in smoke. Yeah, baby, just like a sacrifice, It all goes up in smoke.
