Dull Flame of Desire – Bjork featuring Antony Hegarty
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
I think one reason why songs are popular is because it gives a chance for people to speak the unspeakable.
