Touch me, turn me on, and burn me down
Your lips, hold a wild desire
And give a kiss like the devil's fire
Your kind of love could burn a town
Touch me, turn me on, and burn me down

You touch brings me to my knees
You've got me begging "please, please, please"
Take my heart and melt it down
Touch me, turn me on, and burn me down

You're a wild love, I can't tame
Your kisses burn like flames
I go crazy, when you're around
So touch me, turn me on, and burn me down

I'm devoured by your fiery flame
My lips can only speak your name
Just spread my ashes all around
Ah touch me, turn me on, and burn me down

You're a wild love, I can't tame
Your kisses burn like flames
I go crazy, when you're around
So touch me, turn me on, and burn me down
Touch me, turn me on, and burn me down
