Live 19 May 1978 version
[Take 1:]
I'm driving in my car, I turn on the radio
I'm pulling you close, you just say no
You say you don't like it, but babe I know you're a liar
'Cause when we kiss, hmm, fire
Well late at night, I'm gonna take you home
I say I wanna stay, you say you wanna be alone
You say you don't need me, but you can't hide your desire
'Cause when we kiss, hmm, fire
You had a hold on me right from the start
A grip so tight I couldn't tear it apart
My nerves all jumping acting like a fool
Your kisses they burn but your heart stays cool
Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
Oh baby you can bet their love they didn't deny
Well now your words say split, but baby words they lie
'Cause when we kiss, hmm, fire, fire, fire, fire
[Take 2:]
I'm driving in my car, turn on the radio
I'm pulling you close, but you just say no
You say you don't like it, but babe I know you're a liar
'Cause when we kiss, hmm, fire
Well late at night, I'm taking you home
I say I wanna stay, you say you wanna be alone
Even that you say you don't love me, but you can't hide your desire
'Cause when we kiss, fire
You had a hold on me right from the start
A grip so tight I couldn't tear it apart
My nerves all jumping acting like a fool
Your kisses they burn but your heart stays cool
Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
Oh baby you can bet their love they didn't deny
And now your words say split, but baby words they lie
'Cause when we kiss, hmm, fire, fire, fire, fire
The above lyrics are for the live 19 May 1978 performance of FIRE at Paramount Theatre in Asbury Park, NJ, during a private warm-up rehearsal for the Darkness On The Edge Of Town Tour. Two takes of the song were performed.
