Teena Marie - Fire and Desire lyrics

Wow. It's really good to see you again, baby. And I must admit you're looking very, very, very nice these days. I guess life must be treating you well. Oh me? Well, I've just been doing the same ol' thing I've always been doing, you know. I've got a new lady now and it's a little different than it was when I was with you. You know, I think back to when we met, the way I used to be and the cold way I used to act. But more than that, I think of how you changed me with your love and sensitivity. Remember when I used to Love them and leave them That's what I used to do Use and abuse them Then I laid eyes on you It was pain before pleasure That was my claim to fame With every measure, baby Tasted teardrop stains, yeah I was cold as ice, long ago baby, baby I wasn't very, very, very nice you know Sugar, sugar, sugar Then I kissed your lips and You turned on my fire, baby And you burned me up within your flame Took me a little higher Made me live again You turned on my fire, baby Then you showed me what a love could do Fire and desire, baby Feel it comin' through And I thank you baby Oh how I thank you, baby. You taught me so much and you showed me so much love and sensitivity, that since you've been gone I don't think I've ever felt this way before. You know, it's funny how a man can change so quickly from a cold blooded person, thinking he's God's gift to women. Remember how I used to do that? Must have been crazy then. Remember when you used to TM: Love them and leave them (oh) That's what I used to do Use and abuse them (whoa) Then I laid eyes on you It was pain before pleasure (oh) That was my claim to fame With every measure Tasted your teardrop stains, yeah
