  • Up in the attic where the skeletons hide
    We all live in fear of the door and what's behind
    A door you dare not open, 'cause what you'll find
    A close encounter of the sexual kind
    Love in the shadows, like a smoking gun

    Batten down, baby, lock all doors, you got the love that I'm coming for
    Your hair's so straight, I can make it curl
    There's a little bit of bad in every good little girl
    Love in the shadows, like a smoking gun

    Is it really what you want, one more broken heart, one more lost and lonely
    Is it really what you need, another broken heart

    [Chorus]
    When it happens, it'll be magical, I'm not knocking it, here's to the magic
    When it happens, it'll be magical, I'm not knocking it, here's to the magic

    Pull up the blankets, you won't hear a sound
    The pounding's like thunder when it shakes the ground
    You got a hunger only I can feed
    You try to fight it off but you're in too deep
    Love in the shadows, love in the shadows, like a smoking gun

    Is it really what you want, one more broken heart, one more lost and lonely
    Is it really what you need, another broken heart

    [Chorus]

    [Repeat: x 2]
    Heat, flame, embers - it can be magical
    Heat, flame, embers - smoking, smoking

    Fire keeps burning up, fire keeps burning

    [Chorus until fade] Writer/s: JIM STEINMAN, JOHN PARR
