Lyrics

Jump into the Fire

[Verse 1]

You can climb a mountain

You can swim the sea

You can jump into the fire

But you'll never be free

You can shake me up

Or I can bring you down

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

We can make each other happy

Oh, we can make each other happy

We can make each other happy

We can make each other happy

[Verse 2]

You can climb a mountain

You can swim the sea

You can jump into the fire

But you’ll never be free, no, no

You can shake me up

Or I can bring you down

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

We can make each other happy

Oh, we can make each other happy

We can make each other happy

We can make each other happy

Whoa!

[Verse 3]

You can climb a mountain

You can swim the sea

You can jump into the fire

But you’ll never be free, no, no

You can shake me up

Or I can bring you down

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

We can make each other happy

We can make each other happy

We can make each other happy

We can make each other happy

[Outro]

Whoa!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa!
