So here is the ritual
I can't tell you what I go through
I've been through heaven and hell for you
All night, all night long
Satin dreams all covered in sweat
When I wake, hot to the touch
I swear to god, you'll be the death of me yet
You are my ceremony
You are my ceremony
You are my ceremony
Now here we are, both skin to skin
Your body sacred, we're about to begin
All night, all night long
Watch the moon, let it drop from the sky
Understand I might draw first blood
But I won't sting like the rattlesnake's bite
One day you'll feel it like I do
A fire deep in the heart so true
If I take you, understand
I might explode like a bomb in your hand
CHORUS :
So what should I say Is it the ancient dance of lovers
Is it the comin' rain
Or is it the passion of something more strange
CHORUS :
