You wanna be warmed by the desire
But you don't wanna get burned
You want me to take you much higher
But you escape at every turn
There is no shame, facing the truth
Keeping your secrets can turn on you

Baby get closer, get close to the flame
Dance in the flame, again and again
Surrender the moment, release the pain
Get close to the flame

You wanna be held like a baby
But you hold back, you won't cry
You wanna be happy with maybe
But maybe could end in good-bye
There is no shame in facing the truth
If you want love -- then this what you gotta do

Baby get closer, get closer to the flame
Dance in the flame, again and again
Surrender the moment, release the pain
Get close to the flame

Touching, caressing through the shadows of the night
Don't let your heartache close you off from the light
Baby get closer, Baby get closer, Baby get closer
Closer and closer to me

Baby get closer, get close to the flame
Dance in the flame, again and again
Surrender the moment, release the pain
Get close to the flame
