I'm On Fire
Tori Amos · Other Songs - Tori Amos
Did he go away and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
I'm on fire
Tell me now baby is he good to you
Can he do to you the things that I do
I can take you higher
I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby
Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley
Through the middle of my soul
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running
Through the middle of my head
Only you can cool my desire
I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby
Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley
Through the middle of my soul
Hey little girl is your daddy home
Did he go away and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
I'm on fire
