Fire

I like it when you work me up
but better when you work me out.
You say we are both diplomats
but we talk better with our hands

Hush, baby, quiet
we're building a fire.
Do you want to see?

Hush, baby, quiet
it's gettin higher.
I can feel the heat

You like it when I dance real slow
even better when I talk down low.
When I set my sights on you
I knew, I knew, I knew

Hush, baby, quiet
we're building a fire.
Do you want to see?

Hush, baby, quiet
it's gettin higher.
I can feel the heat

I really thought it was over
honest to god it was done.
The fire I lit went out
so you came and built another one

I tried to stop you - you said

Hush, baby, quiet
we're building a fire.
Do you want to see?

Hush, baby, quiet
it's gettin higher.
I can feel the heat
