The palpitating beast that beats within my battered breast
Burning and bedeviling, not allowing any rest
The thunder in my mind reflects the storm within my heart
A blasting, blaring sound that tears my soul apart
If this is love, who needs it?
There's a tender, tempting feeling that is growing in my mind
Soothing and caressing a part of me, that's blind
A warming worm that's mellowing and eating my resolve
Changing and challenging my cold heart to dissolve
If this is love, I want it
Now, a flaming, flaring fire I feel, has trapped me in it's trance
Flashing and flickering and forcing me to dance
I'm raised by its pure energy, aborning me anew
Blinding but enlightening, I know the fire is you
If this is love, ohh, I want it
If this is love, I want it
If this is what love is like, ohh, yes, I need it
Ohh, if this is what love is like, I wanna have a taste of it
