FIRE^©

Live 02 Nov 2002 version

I'm drivin' in my car, turn on the radio
Pulling you close, just say no
Say you don't like it, but I know you're a liar
When we kiss
Ohhh, (crowd: fire)
Whoa, fire

Well late at night, I'm drivin' you home
Say I wanna stay, you say you wanna be alone
Love me, but you can't hide your desire
When we kiss
Ohhh, fire, fire

You got a hold on me can't ??? start
A grip so tight I couldn't tear it apart
My nerves all shakin' actin' like a fool
Your kisses they burn, but your heart (crowd: stays cool) oooh

Shhh!
Shhh!

Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
You can bet their love they couldn't deny
Words say split, but your words they lie
When we kiss
Ohhh, fire, fire

Hold on me can't tear it apart
Grip so tight I couldn't shake my heart
Nerves all jumpin' actin' like a fool
Your kisses they burn, but your heart stays coooool
Whoa

Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
You can bet their love they couldn't deny
Your words say split, yeah but your words they lie
When we kiss
Ohhh, fire

Yeah I'm talking about fire
Burnin' in my soul, fire
Baby it's out of control, fire
Yeah I'm talking about fire
Whoa, about fire, yeah
I'm talking about fire
Whoa, about fire, yeah
Oh yeah fire
Whoa fire
Yeah I'm talking about fire
