Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You say come hold me say come feel me that′s I'm dreaming of
You say come kiss me say don′t hurt me I'm too lost in you
And when you say you want me come love me
You're a sweet taboo
Lady - you set my heart on fire
Baby - I feel a deep desire
Maybe - I′m crazy when you′re by my side
You kill me with your smile, Susan
Your heart is going wild again
I'm fascinated by the way you look at me, my love
You kill me with your smile (with your smile), oh no
I′m helpless like a child (like a child), you know
I can't resist - you make me feel brand new, my love
Oh Susan
You say come with me say don′t leave me
Close your hungry eyes
And when you say come touch me come take me
Don't you realize
Lady - we′re playing with the fire
Baby - we're burning in desire
Maybe - I'm crazy when you′re by my side
You kill me with your smile, Susan
Your heart is going wild again
I′m fascinated by the way you look at me, my love
You kill me with your smile (with your smile), oh no
I'm helpless like a child (like a child), you know
I can′t resist - you make me feel brand new, my love
Baby tonight we will stay together
Baby it's time for a start
Cause the heartbeat fever
Burns inside my heart
You kill me with your smile, Susan
Your heart is going wild again
I′m fascinated by the way you look at me, my love
You kill me with your smile (with your smile), oh no
I'm helpless like a child (like a child), you know
I can′t resist - you make me feel brand new, my love
Oh Susan

He describes feeling helpless, "like a child," and how he feels like he's burning with fever because of their connection. Despite knowing that they may be playing with fire, they can't resist each other and give in to their desires.
The song speaks to the allure of a dangerous and addictive love, where passion and desire can override any sense of self-control.
