Fire Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I'm ridin' in your car
You turn on the radio

You're pullin' me close
I just say no
I say I don't like it
But you know I'm a liar

'Cause when we kiss
Ooh, fire

[Verse 2]
Late at night
You're takin' me home
You say you want to stay
I say I wanna be alone
I say I don't love you
But you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss
Ooh, fire


[Bridge]
You had a hold on me right from the start
A grip so tight I couldn't tear it apart
My nerves all jumpin', actin' like a fool
Well, your kisses, they burn, but my heart stays cool
[Break]

[Verse 3]
Well, Romeo and Juliet
Samson and Delilah

Baby, you can bet
A love they couldn't deny
My words say split
But my words, they lie

'Cause when we kiss
Ooh, fire

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Ooh, fire
Hot kisses like fire
Burn me up with fire
I like what you're doing now, fire
Touchin' me with fire
Touchin' me, burning me with fire
Take me home with fire, now

Kisses like fire
Kisses like fire

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
