COLD FIRE

cold fire
licks my toes
shanks
knees
cold fire
on a black rock
cold fire
rising lustfully
up the tights
upwards upwards
and inwards
cold fire
will catch my hair
my snake-like eyes
cold fire
a flaring blaze
oh cold fire
kisses hotly

I burn I burn
on a pyre of sensation

Hladni ogenj

Hladni ogenj

hladni ogenj mi
liže stopala
goleni kolena
hladni ogenj
na črni skali
hladni ogenj
se poželjivo vzpenja
po stegnih
navzgor navzgor
in navznoter
hladni ogenj
bo zajel moje lase    
moje kačje oči
hladni ogenj
plamteč požar
o hladni ogenj
poljublja vroče

gorim gorim
na grmadi čutov
Close

COLD FIRE

cold fire
licks my toes
shanks
knees
cold fire
on a black rock
cold fire
rising lustfully
up the tights
upwards upwards
and inwards
cold fire
will catch my hair
my snake-like eyes
cold fire
a flaring blaze
oh cold fire
kisses hotly

I burn I burn
on a pyre of sensation

COLD FIRE

cold fire
licks my toes
shanks
knees
cold fire
on a black rock
cold fire
rising lustfully
up the tights
upwards upwards
and inwards
cold fire
will catch my hair
my snake-like eyes
cold fire
a flaring blaze
oh cold fire
kisses hotly

I burn I burn
on a pyre of sensation
