Kissing The Flame

the look in her eyes has him climbing the walls
he makes sure he's ready whenever she calls
drawing him closer, she's giving him hope
showing him freedom, she then pulls on the rope
she's got the moves that make his head spin
win or lose, there's no way he can win
she gave the audition and he nailed the part
quitting right now would be the perfect start

she knows the weakness feeding his doubt
sticking to the plan, she has it all worked out
before he knows it, he'll be playing her game
before he can blow it out
he'll be kissing the flame

kissing the flame
putting out fires
doing whatever she dreams or desires
he's always on call...all set up to fall
whenever she tires

the look on his face has her planning some more
like a little kid loose in a candy store
she won't come out unless she has her way
she won't leave him alone
until he begs her to stay

before he knows it, he'll be playing her game
before he can blow it out
he'll be kissing the flame
