The world was on fire, no one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish lovers do
I never dreamed that I' d love somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

No, I don't wanna fall in lust (this world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in lust (this world is only gonna break your heart)
WITH YOU
WITH YOU

What a wicked game to play to let me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do to let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say, never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do to let me dream of you

And I wanna fall in lust (this world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in lust (this world is only gonna break your heart)
WITH YOU

The world was on fire, no one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish lovers do
I never dreamed that I 'd love somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I wanna fall in lust (this world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in lust (this world is only gonna break your heart)
WITH YOU

(this world is only gonna break your heart)
WITH YOU
(this world is only gonna break your heart)
No I........ (this world is only gonna break your heart)
(this world is only gonna break your heart)
NOBODY LOVES NO ONE


I am not a Chris Isaak follower, but I do love the melody of this song. Though a bit permiscuous, I suppose. Confession: I thought it was "I don't wanna fall in love..." i guess that is why the producers of Friends chose to use this song in the episode that Ross & Rachel "Ah-hem" for the first time. ANYWAY, the twang of the guitar & sensualness of his voice together make this song a contender on my list. I could write more I know, but my husband & kids are playing in the sunshine in the backyard. I think I will go join them.

What time in your life does this song make you think of?
