Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I can't hear a thing but I can feel you beneath me
I'm lost in my thoughts as I be riding this subway
In the street lights, steam is rising
Hey, yeah
Forming a visceral vision of you
Hey
[Chorus]
We've got desire burning in the fire
I know exactly what you're thinking, baby, but I know that you're wrong
This ain't deceiving, baby, it's the real thing
Hey, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm realizing that I'm nothing without you
I'm watching you write inside your favorite cafe
From a distance, all seems inviting
Hey, yeah
I can't imagine life without love
That's why I'm trying to say I can't stop thinking about you
'Cause you are my sunshine lady
Oh
[Chorus]
We've got desire burning in the fire
I know exactly what you're thinking, baby, but I know that you're wrong
This ain't deceiving, baby, it's the real thing
Hey, yeah
[Bridge]
I can't believe that you'd forget this love we had
Oh, not so long ago
I just want you to know how I feel
How I feel, yeah, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Something about you, you in my arms
Cannot control the passion, you make me
When you're away, it's never the same
How can I live without lovin'?
[Chorus]
We've got desire burning in the fire
I know exactly what you're thinking, baby, but I know that you're wrong
This ain't deceiving, baby, it's the real thing
Hey, yeah
[Chorus]
We've got desire burning in the fire
I know exactly what you're thinking, baby, but I know that you're wrong
This ain't deceiving, baby, it's the real thing
Whoa-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
[Outro]
I can't stop thinking about you
'Cause you are my sunshine fire in the sky
