Lyric 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 was 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 fantasyland

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

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