Fire We Make
Alicia Keys · Girl On Fire [2012]
Ah, it's crazy, it's crazy, come on, come on
I wonder do you really, oh yeah, wanna know yeah
I wanna know yeah, oh oh
Hey baby, how you doing tonight
I wanna let you know, I wanna tell you just how I feel
I wanna love you baby and it's going so right
I wanna burn a candle, turn the darkness to light
With the fire we make, it's getting hotter and hotter
Like a moth to a flame, I can't stay away
With the fire we make, it's getting higher and higher
Like the night to the day
I can't stay away, no no no (yeah)
Stay away...
Hi baby, won't you tell me the truth
You wanna be the one, you can't stay away
Oh, hey darling, don't you make no excuse
We can chase the sun, and burn a hole inside your love
With the fire we make, it's getting hotter and hotter
Like a moth to a flame, I can't stay away
With the fire we make, it's getting higher and higher
Like the night to the day
I can't stay, I can't stay away
This invisible portal, it takes us to the stars
It's getting higher and higher
It's the fire we make, it's the fire we make
Getting sweeter, and sweeter
Like a night to a day
About to make up this flame
I can't stay away, say it, no no (yeah) no no no
Can't stay away, no no no
I wanna tell you babe, I gotta let you know
I just wanna stay with you
I can't be done, I just can't stay away
I wanna make so much fire with you baby
I wanna go, gonna go to you darling, ah
I say yeah yeah
I wonder do you really, oh yeah, wanna know yeah
I wanna know yeah, oh oh
Hey baby, how you doing tonight
I wanna let you know, I wanna tell you just how I feel
I wanna love you baby and it's going so right
I wanna burn a candle, turn the darkness to light
With the fire we make, it's getting hotter and hotter
Like a moth to a flame, I can't stay away
With the fire we make, it's getting higher and higher
Like the night to the day
I can't stay away, no no no (yeah)
Stay away...
Hi baby, won't you tell me the truth
You wanna be the one, you can't stay away
Oh, hey darling, don't you make no excuse
We can chase the sun, and burn a hole inside your love
With the fire we make, it's getting hotter and hotter
Like a moth to a flame, I can't stay away
With the fire we make, it's getting higher and higher
Like the night to the day
I can't stay, I can't stay away
This invisible portal, it takes us to the stars
It's getting higher and higher
It's the fire we make, it's the fire we make
Getting sweeter, and sweeter
