between the fire and the flame

Up to the cabin for a weekend away
Taking a break from the everyday
Hoping for a blanket of snow that lasts
Can hardly wait, might drive too fast

I don't ski, but I guess that's ok
Not what I had in mind anyway
We can bundle inside, if it's just the same;
watch the fire, and kindle the flame.

I want to watch the fire dance on your back
See your hair glow yellow there on my lap
never thought winter could be as hot as this
crankin up the heat with each warm kiss

Here we are between the fire and the flame
Changed by love, we'll never be the same
Working at love, and loving without games
Here we are, between the fire and the flame

We'll pop some corn, talk about dreams and hopes
All the while keepin an eye on those slopes
If it looks like fun, all that slippin and slidin,
Then just slide over here and slip right in.

And the cold winter air will never get near
As we snuggle up on that laid-out bear
I'll put more logs on, get it as hot as you desire
Somethin's stirring now, the flames are gettin higher

I want to watch the fire dance on your back
See your hair glow yellow there on my lap
never thought winter could be as hot as this
crankin up the heat with each warm kiss

Here we are between the fire and the flame
Changed by love, we'll never be the same
Working at love, and loving without games
Here we are, between the fire and the flame
