Is it the heat of your presence that makes me sweat?
And tells me that this ain’t over yet
Or just the weight of your gaze, the way it scans the room
That tells me I won’t be leaving soon
I’ve had my fair share of heartaches but make no mistake
Tonight there’s nothing left to break
The way you move to the rhythm with your feline grace
Like fireworks exploding into space
She said it can’t be love
Just a pretty thing closing in
You know it can’t be love
Just a pretty thing closing in
I’ve made a deal with the devil, but your lilac scent
Makes me believe you’re heaven sent
And if it’s all an illusion, baby I don’t mind
We’ll get the real world left behind
She said it can’t be love
Just a pretty thing closing in
You know it can’t be love
Just a pretty thing closing in
Pretty thing, you’re closing in
Don’t care where you’ve been
I know I, I need you tonight
Pretty thing, you’re closing in
And she’s whispering
I know I, I need you tonight
Pretty thing, you’re closing in
Underneath my skin
I know I, I need you tonight
Pretty thing, you’re closing in
Somewhere deep within
I know I, I need you tonight
And tells me that this ain’t over yet
Or just the weight of your gaze, the way it scans the room
That tells me I won’t be leaving soon
I’ve had my fair share of heartaches but make no mistake
Tonight there’s nothing left to break
The way you move to the rhythm with your feline grace
Like fireworks exploding into space
She said it can’t be love
Just a pretty thing closing in
You know it can’t be love
Just a pretty thing closing in
I’ve made a deal with the devil, but your lilac scent
Makes me believe you’re heaven sent
And if it’s all an illusion, baby I don’t mind
We’ll get the real world left behind
She said it can’t be love
Just a pretty thing closing in
You know it can’t be love
Just a pretty thing closing in
Pretty thing, you’re closing in
Don’t care where you’ve been
I know I, I need you tonight
Pretty thing, you’re closing in
And she’s whispering
I know I, I need you tonight
Pretty thing, you’re closing in
Underneath my skin
I know I, I need you tonight
Pretty thing, you’re closing in
Somewhere deep within
I know I, I need you tonight

I believe this song is about someone who believes they've found love at first sight with someone (or perhaps infatuation) at first sight. The person who they think they've fallen for keeps telling them it can't be true, that they are in fact just a passing fancy that will soon be behind them.
