      @ Patrick Tomasso (who wrote, "I'm 17 and this video makes me feel 46 again!"):
      That's a brilliant comment. Pernickety point: would have preferred no exclamation mark to make the tone more matter-of-fact (but at least you didn't resort to the overused 'lol').

    Sitting by my window
    Watching the moonlight
    In my home
    Suddenly my mind
    Was bringing out desire
    In my home, baby
    So I got a woman
    To put out this fire
    Burning in my soul (hey)
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul (oh no)
    So I had a phone call (hello)
    From my woman
    In my home
    She was burning
    Burning of desire
    Just like I do (that's right, baby)
    She wanted me to
    Put out this fire
    Burning in her soul (what she say to me)
    Only you, Theo
    Can put out this fire
    Only you, Theo
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire (only you)
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
    Suddenly my woman
    Was in my arms
    In my home
    She was loving me
    Sixty-nine times
    In my home (are you sure?)
    She was putting
    Putting out the fire
    Burning in my soul (really?)
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire
    Only you, baby (only you)
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
    Only you, Theo (ah)

    To put out this fire
    Burning in my soul (Hey)
    [Chorus]
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
    [Verse 2]
    Soon I had a phone call (Hello?)
    From a woman
    In my home
    She was burning
    Burning of desire
    Just like I do (That's right, baby)
    She wanted me to
    Put out this fire
    Burning in her soul (What she say to me)
    [Chorus]
    Only you, Theo
    Can put out this fire
    Only you, Theo
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
    Only you baby
    Can put out this fire (Only you)
    Only you baby
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
    [Verse 3]
    Suddenly my woman
    Was in my arms
    In my home
    She was loving me
    69 times
    In my home (Are you sure?)
    She was putting
    Putting out the fire
    Burning in my soul (Really?)
    [Chorus: Theophilus London and Kevin Parker]
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire
    Only you, baby (Only you)
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
    Only you, Theo (Ahhhh)
    Can put out this fire (Only you baby)
    Only you, Theo
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
    [Outro]
    Only you, baby (only you)
    Can put out this fire
    Only you, baby
    Can put out this fire
    Burning in my soul
