For each forgotten kiss,
For all the memories,
For all the times a look,
Said all we had to say,

You played your part so well,
A modern Romeo,
You came on Cupids wings,
And then you flew away,

When you touched my face
When you call my name
I'm burned with desire

[Repeat x2]
When you touched my face,
When you call my name,
I'm burned with desire,

But you left me in the rain

For every sleepless night,
Forever in your arms,
For every hour spent,
Lost in the reverie,

You broke your promises,
No shame and no regrets,
You burned the bridges too,
An endless mystery.

[Repeat x2]
When you touched my face (So beautiful)
When you call my name (My name)
I'm burned with desire

But you left me in the rain

    Reminds me of an ex-lover... "For each forgotten kiss For all the memories For all the times alone Said all we had to say" Reminds me also of an unrequited love... "When you touch my face When you call my name I'm burned with desire But you left me in the rain..."

    "For each forgotten kiss For all the memories For all the times a look Said all we had to say" Had to point that out. Oh yeah! It's "I burned with desire" too.... Sorry ^^; I love this song though... Reminds me of an ex-lover who just got up and left me. Used some excuse about how his mother didn't approve of me because I was a few months older, when he was actually having sex with some girl.... That was a great first love.... "For every sleepless night Forever in your arms For every hour spent Lost in the revery" Sounds like the relationship I'm in now, but minus the next verse. I'm always lost in my boyfriend's arms... not to mention his eyes.... hehe

    definitely about an ex-lover "You played your part so well A modern Romeo You came on Cupid's wings And then you flew away" guess he was a really sweet lover, like romeo, and he stole her heart...and left.... "When you touch my face When you call my name I'm burned with desire But you left me in the rain" i don't know metaphorically, but sounds like reminiscing... "You broke your promises No shame and no regrets You burned the bridges too An endless mystery" not sure what he did, maybe he just broke up with her and didn't do anything too nasty, but burning the bridges would mean they're no longer friends, he completely ruined their relationship...and there's no turning back. *sigh* love the voice of justine suissa

    A mi me trae los recuerdos alegres y dolorosos del primer amor y es cierto, cuando ardes en deseos de algo más, sucede que toda la magia terminó, que solo queda el recuerdo doloroso de aquel amor único e irrepetible. For me, this song reminds me happiness and painfull moments from the first time that you fell in love and it's correct, when you feel something else, when you're burning inside, then, unfortunately it ends as fast as it began and there only stay the painfull dream of the first and unique love.

    From: trance.nu/v3/… Interview with Armin Van Buuren Behind the Scenes: Burned with Desire “She had a one night stand with a guy…” Justine and I started in the studio with Justine with the idea: I’d just met with a friend of mine who was back from holiday. She had a one night stand with a guy and they agreed on not falling in love with each other. And in fact she did. She fell in love with the guy and when she went back to see the guy, he already had another girl. And that was literally it: it was rainy day the day after…She was trying to find him and she saw him with another girl and she burned with desire but he left her in the rain. So if you think about the lyrics ‘For each forgotten kiss, for all the memories…You played your part so well, your modern Romeo, You came on Cupid’s wings and then you flew away’ it’s about the empty feeling we all have at some times. “English is not my native language so we had some fun in the studio; sometimes I say something really stupid. I would find something and I’m like ‘Alright, I want to say this-and-this and she [Justine Suissa] would say ‘uh, right Armin, but you have to word it like this!’ The ‘But you left me in the rain’ was my part, I kept using it-- Justine would sing “Burned with Desire’ and then I would sing ‘but you left me in the rain’ and she’d be like ‘No, no!’ - but finally at the end we added it in”, Armin told us as if telling a good joke. “It was actually written in a few hours. I did the finally chill out mix, we wrote the tune on 138bpm, but I did it half tempo, so it was easy to the Rising Star Remix.”
