The Dull Flame Of Desire

I love your eyes, my dear Their splendid sparkling fire When suddenly you raise them so To cast a swift embracing glance Like lightning flashing in the sky But there's a charm that is greater still When my love's eyes are lowered When all is fired by passion's kiss And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire I love your eyes, my dear Their splendid sparkling fire When suddenly you raise them so To cast a swift embracing glance Like lightning flashing in the sky But there's a charm that is greater still When my love's eyes are lowered When all is fired by passion's kiss And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire Oh flame, dull flame Oh flame, dull flame I love your eyes, my dear Their splendid sparkling fire When suddenly you raise them so To cast a swift embracing glance Like lightning flashing in the sky But there's a charm that is greater still When my love's eyes are lowered When all is fired by passion's kiss And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire Through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire Dull flame, dull fame Oh flame I love your eyes, my dear Their splendid sparkling fire When suddenly you raise them so To cast a swift embracing glance Like lightning flashing in the sky But there's a charm that is greater still When my love's eyes are lowered When all is fired by passion's kiss Through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire --- The Dull Flame of Desire - Björk
