This is a song about a man who states he needs a lover that acts alive because his woman is lifeless in bed. He states she doesn’t move or laugh or cry. She just lies there like a corpse which kills the mood of any intimacy. He states he needs a spark to light a fire within them both. He asks if she just wants out of the relationship or what?
This song was inspired by a relationship I had in my early twenties with a girl who was as frigid as a brick wall. As in the song, it was like lying next to a corpse.
