The city descends in darkness
No electricity, only sound
Frustrations for so many mount
Except for lovers by fate bound
Huddled together in darkness
Love's their real power
Feeling the electricity of love
They jump in the shower
Summer's heat is no problem
Cold water is all it takes
Their bodies they scrub
Desire's all it takes
Dried by summer's heat
Wet by passion's heat
Romance in candle-light
They hear their hearts beat
Romance has its own power
No need for artificial light
Sounds are the moans and sighs
Temptations of the dark night
