THE FIRE OF LOVE
I'm walking, on a path that's not a path
to ask for your love
oh how hard and twisted is my path
in silence, I whispered your name
outside only the wind is lonely howling
I didn't ask for a hiding place, I will not flee
all of me is yearning, and my soul is hoping
to feel your fondling magic
Oho oho oho oho...
There's a fire in my body, in my bones
your love will light up for me
my days and my nights
my life and my ways
(x2)
The bitterness of my wine - I shall swallow
the bitterness of my shrub, I will sink in it
cellars - will attest how much
suffering my life was saturated with
On the way to you, I didn't know my soul
I called your name but there was no answer
and an unknown voice, rising from the path
the cry of a howling jackal
