The Flames Of Desire Lyrics - The Lexicon Of Love Ii - Abc

Caesars have squandered jewels on you 

Empires they build on shifting sands 

Trading for kisses in a queue 

Like sacrificial lambs 

Let Rome in Tiber melt away 

Legions that conquer rise then fall 

I'll kneel to the gods and then I'll pray 

Do you hear my call? 

You came you saw you conquered me 

Right then I knew you wanted me 

Burning in flames of desire 

Burning in flames of desire 

You came you saw you taunted me 

High Priestess powers anointed me 

This is the torch, this is the flame 

This is the passion wild and untamed 

Burning in flames of desire 

The spirit of romance in your smile 

Sweeping me back two thousand years 

To bathe in the waters of the Nile 

In Cleopatra's tears 

Together we sail cross dessert seas 

Is it true? Is it déjà-vu? 

It whispers in the breeze 

Do you feel it too? 

You came you saw you conquered me 

Right then I knew you wanted me 

Burning in flames of desire 

Burning in flames of desire 

You came you saw you taunted me 

High Priestess powers anointed me 

This is the torch, this is the flame 

This is the passion wild and untamed 

Burning in flames of desire 

Veni Vidi Vici 

You came you saw you conquered me 

Right then I knew you wanted me 

Burning in flames of desire 

You came you saw you taunted me 

High priestess powers anointed me 

This is the torch, this is the flame 

This is the passion wild and untamed 

Burning in flames of desire
