FIRE^©

Anthology video version

??? up

I'm driving in my car, I turn on the radio
I'm pulling you close, hmm you just say no
You say you don't like it, but girl I know you're a liar
'Cause when we kiss
Ohhh, fire

Well late at night, I'm takin' you home
Well I say I wanna stay, you say you wanna be alone
You say you don't love me, but you can't hide your desire
And when we kiss
Ohhh, fire

???!

You had a hold on me right from the start
In a grip so tight I can't tear it apart
My nerves all jumpin' actin' like a fool
Your kisses they burn, but your heart stays cool

No, no, this is... I gotta stay calm, this is too to ???. Alight, let's calm.

Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
Baby you can bet their love they didn't deny
Your words say split, yeah but your words they lie
When we kiss
Ohhh, fire, fire
Whoa, fire, fire
Hmmm, fire
Whoa-whoa-whoa, fire
Hmmm, fire
Hmmm, fire
Oh that's bad
Keep it goin' boys
I'm now comin' baby
Eh you know what I like
Hmm
It's Burnin' in my soul
I just can't, I just can't, I just can't
Stand myself
Yeah!

The above lyrics refer to the 13 Oct 1986 off-tour acoustic performance at Shoreline Amphitheater, Mountain View, CA, during an acoustic evening to benefit The Bridge School. The video of that performance of the song was later included on The Complete Video Anthology / 1978-2000 DVD.
