I have spent nights with matches and knives
Leaning over ledges only two flights up
Cutting my heart, burning my soul, nothing left to hold
Nothing left but blood and fire

You have spent nights thinking of me
Missing my arms but you needed to leave
Leaving my cuts, leaving my burns, hoping I'd learn

Blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire are calling me back to your fold
And I'm calling you, calling you from 10,000 miles away
Won't you whet my fire with your love, babe?

I am looking for someone who can take as much as I give
Give back as much as I need and still have the will to live
Cause I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
But I feel forsaken, like the things I, I gave away

And blood and fire are too much
For these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire are calling me back to your fold
And I'm calling you, calling you from 10,000 miles away
Won't you whet my fire with your love, babe?

I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love

And blood and fire are too much
For these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire are calling me back to your fold
And I'm calling you, calling you from 10,000 miles away
Won't you whet my fire with your love, babe?
Won't you whet my fire with your love, baby baby?
Whet my fire with your love
