Really, like no one is supposed to talk about this- women over a certain (undefined) age get these things, we feel like we're on fire and we're supposed to just act normal? Sorry...I like breaking barriers and norms...

We stood in the moonlight, his body next to mine
His touch was electrifying; his kisses were divine.
I felt us both getting warmer, that certain chemistry.
Could this be my true love? Or else, it just could be…

Chorus:
A hot flash, my body’s on fire,
It’s a hot flash, it’s nothing like desire,
It’s a hot flash, a hot flash,
A hot flash, a hot flash,
A hot flash.

The meeting’s going beautifully,
Reports lined up in front of me.
I’ve worked and I’ve prepared all week,
And soon it is my turn to speak.
But just when I am on the spot
The room seems to be getting hot.
Who turned the dial to 83?
Or could it just be me?

Chorus

My mother and my grandma, they had those flashes too
They never spoke about them, it simply was taboo.
And so they suffered silently, and that’s what you expect of me.
But I was made a different way; I’ll come right out and say…

Chorus
