I've got to keep it exciting

Keep you coming back

Desiring to keep the partner coming back, suggesting a fear of losing their interest.

I'm always so frightened you'll see through my act

When the fire is out and I've given up

You come running out and you build it up

You tell me good love never dies

Reassuring the endurance of good love, despite challenges.

It only hurts when we burn our eyes

You've gotta throw your hands up and let the night come

Suggesting the need to surrender to the natural course of events and embrace the night, symbolizing a time of rest or healing.


I like watching you out there, it's comforting

Expressing comfort in observing the partner from a distance.


Tell me, what can I say to keep you in my life?
