Heart in my mouth, pulse in my head Mercury rising into the red The smell of your skin can light up All the fires in me
Hungry to touch, I'm eager to please Out of control and I hand you the keys Every night, I am burning to make love to you
But, don't try to tell me You think it's all physical It goes much deeper than that
You ought to know it's An affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart Have a little blind faith, believe It's an affair of the heart
When we make love, it's a passionate thing You shudder and shake, sink your teeth in my skin I almost believe you were made to be played by my hands
And you got the power, it amazes me still How you play my emotions with consummate skill I don't have to look any further than into your eyes
So don't try to tell me You think it's just physical It goes way deeper than that
You better know it's an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart Have a little blind faith, believe It's an affair of the heart
Don't try to tell me You think it's all physical It goes much deeper than that
You ought to know it's An affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart You better know it's an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart You better know it's an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart Baby, an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart It's an affair of the heart
