"Just Wait A Little While"

Just wait a little while
And you will start to feel it
The burning of the fire
At your feet
Just wait a little while
And you will start to taste it
You realize this hunger
Is now a need

It's way too late now to deny it
Once you acknowledge that you want it
Get a grip on how you need it
The fire's flame is what keeps you breathing

Don't pretend to hide it
The fire's etched inside your eyes
Your fear cannot control it
Just wait a little while

You trust that if you wait
It will fade into the past
But each time you see her face
The fire's flames come rushing back

Just wait a little while
And surrender to the flames
It's more than you ever thought
That it could be
Just wait a little while
Give yourself up to the fire
And pleasure in the freedom
And release
