The grandfather clock ticks behind us
As the rain falls so heavily outside
It's in the front of the roaring fire
Where you and I now reside

Like a log that burns brightly in the fire
So does my love burn for you
As we sit cosily in front of the fire
There's so much in this warmth we could do

Our bodies glow in profile from the firelight
You put my hair back behind my ears
Then you tenderly put your arms around me
And draw my body towards you so near

The wine is the color of rubies
In the crystal glass I hold in my hand
As you reach down and take my hand in yours
And together as one we both stand

You take my face in your hands and you kiss me
I suddenly feel so very weak at the knees
Our passisons without a match are ignited
As we are both so eager to please

Our bare feet sink seductively into the sheepskin
The place where our love will succumb
This is the place where our bodies will join
And we two will so soon become one
