Your nearness is all I need
No more and no less
Your highness I vow to thee
And to thee I'll confess
I was lost in a forest
But now I'm a believer
So just be my master
And I'll be your fever
Isn't that brilliant? I was hearing it all pretty literally, then read this really wonderful comment on the song by SayWatson:
In my opinion, the "master" represents a master of a trade, in this case a teacher, and the "fever" is the master's passion, what drives him to live, what he shares with the world.
He says "my heart is only on fire, when you are the teacher." The master and the fever passionately learn from each other, through teaching and being taught. And through this relationship, both parties are satisfied and in some way, complete. They complete each other; they can't exist without each other.
I love that.
Other passionate, intense songs? Give links please, so that I may listen.

One of my favorites; it's not so much the lyrics as the emotional way they're sung.
Have you heard "pieces" by the villagers.
that song gets me every time.
