Let me lay waste with gentle persuasion Let me lay down to sweat in the heat On the back of beyond we laugh at all reason And in the light of it all there's no need to retreat And the heat comes down And the heat comes down And hand in hand We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat Save for the asking, fortune favors the brave Let me take strength from the child in your eyes And between the lines we dance into the mirror And a grateful embrace lays in wait for the sun to rise And the heat comes down And the heat comes down And hand in hand We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat Love, love, love Please don't take it hard When I give myself to you Love will come easy When you deign to swallow my pride Before I ever touch your lips You promise the very earth to me And tender hearts are broken down When you take me deep inside And the heat comes down And the heat comes down And hand in hand We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat We melt in the heat Melt in the heat
