If This Is Love

The palpitating beast that beats within my battered breast Burning and bedevilling, not allowing any rest The thunder in my mind reflects the storm within my heart A blasting, blaring sound that tears my soul apart If this is love... who needs it? There's a tender, tempting feeling that is growing in my mind Soothing and caressing a part of me that's blind A warming worm that's mellowing and eating my resolve Changing and challenging my cold heart to dissolve If this is love... I want it! Now a flaming, flaring fire I feel has trapped me in it's trance Flashing and flickering and forcing me to dance I'm raised by its pure energy, aborning me anew Blinding but enlightening, I know the fire is you If this is love... I need it If this is love... I want it If this is what love is like... oh yes, I need it Oh if this is what love is like, I wanna have a taste of it
