lyrics by David Mentzer


Verse 1 Crazy sexy love, play me with your lips,
You answer all my prayers with just a kiss,
Forests burn tonight, wouldn’t stop if I could,
Even if my body was made of wood.

Chorus Your fiery lips keep me burning bright…
I just follow smoke and find delight,
When the fire fades, just pick up that horn…and
Saxophone the stone and watch me burn.

Verse 2 Rubbing sticks is fun but light a match and learn…
Look at me that way I start to burn,
You can do it all, give me all you got,
Any way you play, my fire’s hot.

Chorus Your fiery lips keep me burning bright…
I just follow smoke and find delight,
When the fire fades, just pick up that horn…and
Saxophone the stone and watch me burn.

Verse 3 Hold me tighter please, see how good I feel,
Just a heartbeat now and it gets real,
Betcha heaven’s horn can smooth an edge…
Every note you play gets me off the ledge.

Chorus Your fiery lips keep me burning bright…
I just follow smoke and find delight,
When the fire fades, just pick up that horn…and
Saxophone the stone and watch me burn.
