Kingdom Of Desire Lyrics - Toto

You used to be on fire, now you chill me to the bone 

We used to fly like angels, now we're sinking like a stone 

You say you're trying to help me but that ain't the way it feels 

I think you're trying to kill me with those stiletto heels 

Paint the town black babe and let that pendulum swing 

I been stabbed in the back babe 

And if you don't love me, I'll never feel a thing 

And oh, one thing I know, there's only one place left for me to go 

Going back to the kingdom of desire, going down to the valley of the gun 

I'm gonna stand too close to the fire, I'm gonna fly too close to the sun

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

They say the king of love sleeps on a velvet bed 

My sheets feel like sandpaper, and my pillow feels like lead 

But as sure as Atlantis sank into the sea 

I'm sinking like a stone babe, that's how it's got to be 

Paint the town black babe and let that pendulum swing 

I been stabbed in the back babe 

And if you don't love me, I'll never feel a thing 

And oh, if I don't have you, there's only one thing left for me to do 

Going back to the kingdom of desire, going down to the valley of the gun 

I'm gonna stand too close to the fire, I'm gonna fly too close to the sun 

When you dig up God's little acre, you lose all peace of mind 

You stare into the distance, looking for a sign 

But that sign it never comes babe, your wishes won't come true 

You keep praying for the rain while the sun beats down on you 

And oh, one thing I know, there's only one place left for me to go

Going back to the kingdom of desire, going down to the valley of the gun 

I'm gonna stand too close to the fire, I'm gonna fly too close to the sun 

Going back to the kingdom of desire, going down to the valley of the gun 

I'm gonna stand too close to the fire, I'm gonna fly too close to the sun 

I'm gonna fly too close to the sun, yeah 

I'm gonna fly too close to the sun
