My Heart's Desire - Aslan

Night is fallin' on me like a big black coat Staring through the window at the empty cold Thick white smoke rolling off my lips My chest is feeling heavy like a cannon ball Got sweat rolling down me like a waterfall 'Cause I left love slip through my fingertips Ooh ooh ooh Hee hee hee I'm a raging fire You're my heart's desire Slipping in and out of a restless sleep Thinking of you wondering if you're thinking of me Or are you long gone girl or with another man The tought bring me right to the brink of rage Like a lion in a rusted out circus cage I wanna break this bars and make you understand Ooh ooh ooh Hee hee hee I'm a raging fire You're my heart's desire When I finally settle in to a midnight dream You're walking through a field of flowers smiling at me So I reach right out and try to touch your skin Then a morning breeze blows and I almost taste Your sweet scent dripping on my pillowcase Damn this day, here I go again Ooh ooh ooh Hee hee hee I'm a raging fire You're my heart's desire I don't think I can really take no more Like a prize fighter laying on a canvas floor I hear the clockbell bring struggle to my faith I've been 52 rounds with your memory I'd go 52 more if it'll make you see Girl you mean the world to me Ooh ooh ooh Hee hee hee I'm a raging fire You're my heart's desire Ooh ooh ooh Hee hee hee I'm a raging fire You're my heart's desire Ooh ooh ooh Hee hee hee
