"Who is the strongest, who is the best, who holds the aces - the east or the west, that is the crap our children are learning".

I love the lyrics of "The Dull Flame of Desire" by Bjork and Anthony Heggarty:
"I love your eyes, my dear
their splendid, sparkling fire
when suddenly you raise them so
to cast a swift embracing glance
like lightening flashing in the sky
but there's a charm that is greater still,
when my love's eyes are lowered
when all is fired by passion's kiss
and through the downcast lashes
I see the dull flame of desire"
No other song could encapsulate such a feeling, just reading the words makes me feel it all!
