     Cm                                                     F7
I've always been the kind of man to only surrender
                 a woman who will
     Gm                                            Cm
  to lovers who are gentle and to lovin' that's tender;
                can lead me to  a love sweet and tender;
     Cm                                  Fm7
 and you act like love's fire might more quickly expire
     Gm                              Cm
were we to let it burn too bright or fan the flames higher.
       Cm
  Well maybe it's time
       F7
    we started to learn
       Gm
   how high we can climb,
       Cm
   how hot love can burn.
       Cm
     Tomorrow again
       F7
   our love will be tame,
     ( Fm )        G 
   but honey, 'til then,
( G    Fm )       Cm
    consume me in flame.

LIFT TO NOWHERE:
    We won't reach the heights
    if we never aim,
    so lover, 'tonight,
    consume me in flame.

Our perfect romance stays above rough fiery passion,
while making tender laid-back love has been more our fashion.
Still, who's to say the love we've made could possibly suffer
if for one wild night we played a little bit rougher.
  Don't misunderstand -
  I love what we do,
  the way it's done and
  especially you.
    It's all I could want,
    but love just the same,
    just for this once,
    consume me in flame.

INSTRUMENTAL

  Our love is so nice,
  so easy and warm,
  that fire and spice
  couldn't cause any harm.
    Now, nothing is wrong;
    I'd never complain;
    but darlin', 'til dawn
    consume me in flame.
    We won't reach the heights
    if we never aim,
    so lover, 'tonight,
    I said, darlin' 'til dawn,
    I said, baby tonight,
    consume me in flame.
