EW LYRICS: CAN'T PUT OUT THE FIRE

---

Can't Put Out The Fire

You said you'd do anything
You said you wanted to know
Got to open your eyes in the darkness baby
And face the shadows that grow

It's a perilous way
You'd better know yourself well
You'll have to find the nerve to follow it through
Baby it's heaven or hell...

You said you were well prepared
I wouldn't know by your look
Well maybe you've learned something out on the street
Or else read it out of some book

Well I've got something new here baby
It's something strange and untried
It's something that's bigger than both of us baby
So why don't you just swallow your pride...

We could test this some more
Lash our wrists to the pole
You told me that you were ready baby
Well if you really are then let's roll

Let's walk on the edge
Dance out on the wire
You can strike the match so easy baby
But you can't put out the fire
No you can't put out the fire...
