What is it that drives us to seek out a mate Is it just so we won't be alone Surely it can't be as simple as that For think of the miles some have flown
Could it be that the reason is a matter of lust That it's sex sought with somebody new One could misconstrue that for many that's true But if so wouldn't anyone do
No, surely there's more to what pushes us onward Surely it's more than these things Companions and sex partners are easy to find And great numbers we pass as with wings
There's a fire within us that grows ever greater Which can only be put out by passion And the fire knows within whom it grows The fire equal in size and in fashion
