Lyrics
The fire burns bright yet you cannot see it
Your eyes are so pure but I know they?re not blind
Reach out your hands and you could just feel it
There?s no need to bury all the treasures you find
Our moment is here, why wait to steal it?
Unleash your desires, I?ll show you just how
I?ve written the pact, so why won?t you seal it?
Let?s get the wheels turning, no time like right now
How can you refrain while my hunger grows strong?
When I?ve carried the scars of our love for so long
Can you forsake the greatest honour of all?
I?ll always dream for these moments to come
Yet I?m stranded in darkness with no glimpse of the sun
Why did I think I could have you at all?
I never thought that the curtain could fall
Good things come to those who wait
And for the touch of your hand, I?ll be waiting forever
The nights were never darker than they are right now
But come with me now and we?ll light them together
You can run, you can hide but I?ll always be there
I?d never let you far from my sight
Good things come to those who wait
But c?mon and be a bad girl tonight
There?s fear in your eyes, I know how to read them
No use in hiding your secrets from me
Your dreams are all lost, I know where to lead them
Take hold of my hand and we?ll set them all free
The signs are all there, so why don?t you heed them?
Don?t try to deny them, they won?t fade away
Your desires are so strong, so why won?t you feed them?
Let?s get the wheels turning, no time like today
And I?ll always see what I wish I could see
I?ll always deny the nightmares I dream
How can I fade while you?re standing so tall?
I?ll always hear only angels in choir
When the demons of hell are howling like fire
Why did I think I could have you at all?
I never thought that the engine could stall
Good things come to those who wait
And for the warmth of your kiss, I?ll be waiting forever
The nights were never darker than they are right now
But come with me now and we?ll light them together
You can run, you can hide but I?ll know where to turn
Your beacon is burning so bright
Good things come to those who wait
But c?mon and be a bad girl tonight
I was never the one to put my foot on the brake
I?d burn the road up like a pyre
I?d never roll dice when the stakes were so low
I?d raise the bar higher and higher
I could never say no to a night on the edge
I was born with a license to thrill
If I ever laid eyes on a good looking face
I?d always go straight for the kill
I could never hold back in the heat of desire
I was always the first to explode
I could never survive in these dark, lonely nights
I longed for the stars to just glow
But there?s a light at the end of the dark road
Why wait forever when you can rev up and go?
Good things come to those who wait
And for someone like you, I?ll be waiting forever
The nights were never darker than they are right now
But come with me now and we?ll light them together
You can run, you can hide but I?ll always be there
I?d never let you far from my sight
Good things come to those who wait
But c?mon and be a bad girl tonight
Good things come to those who wait
But why can?t you be a bad girl tonight?
