Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You know that it would be untrue

You know that I would be a liar

If I was to say to you

Girl, we couldn't get much higher

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, light my fire

Come on, baby, light my fire

Try to set the night on fire

[Verse 2]

The time to hesitate is through

No time to wallow in the mire

Try now, we can only lose

And our love become a funeral pyre

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, light my fire

Come on, baby, light my fire

Try to set the night on fire, yeah

[Verse 3]

The time to hesitate is through

No time to wallow in the mire

Try now, we can only lose

And our love become a funeral pyre

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, light my fire

Come on, baby, light my fire

Try to set the night on fire, yeah

[Bridge]

You know that it would be untrue

You know that I would be a liar

If I was to say to you

Girl, we couldn't get much higher

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, light my fire

Come on, baby, light my fire

Try to set the night on fire

Try to set the night on fire

Try to set the night on fire

Try to set the night on fire
