Ariadne, Endure My Fire

Our heartbeats quieted 'neath
The evening sky
The band plays
And we sway
The wind passes
Secrets between
The stars
Our skin magnetic
Keeps crashing together
Every second step
Our lips electric
Keep tasting sparks
Between them
Our eyes locked
Keep us bound together
From across the room
The hint of liquor
The farewell spectacle
Of the sun
The light-kiss on your skin
The endless reflections
Where we dance a thousand times
In mirrors
All conspire
To craft this desire
That when the sun goes down
When the lights go off
When the world is asleep
We'll be just taking off
Our clothes
We keep the night alive
And on her toes
We keep the music playing
Long after the bar's closed
Ariadne and the devil
And everyone hopes
We'll leave this fire alone
But no one knows
What hearts we'll burn
Tomorrow.
