In the beginning, she was stunning and pure
When he first saw her, he fainted to the floor
Floor, floor

She was distant and arrogant from the start,
She did not see the fragile state of his heart
She fell in love with him, on that very day
She became softer, in every way

Even though they were so in love,
She drew a line in the sand, just because
They did not know each other, they did not trust
The only thing that they did together, was to make love

So paradise found was not paradise to him,
Oh yes he loved her, but he was still an English man
Tropical birds in the heat and the ocean,
Oh, it drove him crazy, drove her away from him

Even though they were so in love,
They drew a line in the sand, just because
They did not know each other, they did not trust
The only thing that they did together, was to make love

She burned his house down, saying you may have forgotten me,
But you'll remember this, you fell to the ground when you saw this
My face, my eyes, my lips,
You may have forgotten me but you'll never forget that kiss

Even though they were so in love,
They drew a line in the sand, just because
They did not know each other, they did not trust
The only thing that they did together, was to make love

When that big house burned down
All around her, in the smoke and the fire,
In the devastation, they never found her
She went back into her her red dress
Back to her white house
To her ocean and after that no words were spoken
About the two of them, ever again

And even though they were so in love,
They drew a line in the sand, just because
They did not know each other, they did not trust
The only thing that they did together, was to make love

(In the beginning,
She was stunning, and pure
In the smoke and the fire,
They never found her
She went back into her ocean
Back to her white house

For a while they were so in love
For a while they were so in love
She burned his house down
My face, my eyes, my lips
May have forgotten them
May have forgotten them
May have forgotten them
But you'll never forget that kiss) Writer/s: DAVE STEWART, STEPHANIE NICKS
