The Fire That We Make
You walked in the door
And the room lit up like
A 4th of July grand finale
And a Christmas tree trimmed
With ten thousand stars
My god!
You were an answer to a prayer
And a dream come true
Strutting in like a man who knows
Who he is and what he wants to be
Our eyes made contact
And the chemistry sent flames
Through our veins
And arrows of love into our hungry hearts
It was music, it was magic
It was a tsunami of longing
That could only be sated one way
And it would not be denied
Not then, not now, not ever
It was a fire unquenchable
And a storm that would never be quieted
No matter how senselessly we tried
And here today, tonight
We still feel the flames
Reaching out like fingers
Responding to silent screams
My fire, your fire entwins
Liquifying like streams of lava
All yearnings consuming
In the fire that we make.
