Lyrics

Light My Fire

You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Honey, we couldn't get much higher
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
The time for hesitation's through
There's no time to wallow in the mire
Darling, we could only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Let's try to set the night on fire
Well, you know that it would be untrue
And you know that I would be a liar
If I was to go and tell you
Honey, we couldn't get much higher
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Let's try to set the night on fire, yeah
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Light my fire, light my fire, baby
Come on, baby, light my fire
Light my fire, light my fire, baby
Light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby
