[Verse 1]
Here they come, the dogs of lust
Out of my mind, into my life
Somebody should be here to hold me
Somebody should be here to show me, show me

[Chorus]
When you're lustful, when you're lonely
And the heat is rising slowly

[Verse 2]
I got it blue, I got it bad
I got the sweetest sadness I ever had
As the hours pass before my eyes
As the hours pass before me

[Chorus]
When you're lustful, when you're lonely
And the heat is rising slowly

[Verse 3]
I keep reaching up
But they drag me back down
Wherever I try to hide
I will always be found
[Chorus]
When you're lustful, when you're lonely
And the heat is rising slowly

[Post-Chorus]
Rising, rising, rising slowly
Rising, rising, rising, rising, rising slowly
