(Back to me)
Lovers walk off on each other
Brothers go their separate ways
You wake up somewhere in the middle
Wonderin' why nobody stays
You are a child of wild desires
When your innocence leaves, yeah
Why you wanna play with fire
Here I am, here I am
Je m'appelle la flamme (ça c'est mon nom)
Set off your alarm (ooh ce soir)
Let me take you home
Bet'cha I'll take care of everything
Tonight
(What, what, what, what'cha gonna do for me)
You thought her love was too good
But she's the reason for your pain
But hey I'm gonna make you happy
I'll never let you hurt again
Almost killed you with her honesty
Back when you innocently stayed
Why you wanna play with fire
Here I am, here I am
Je m'appelle la flamme (ça c'est mon nom)
Set off your alarm (ooh ce soir)
Let me take you home
Bet'cha I'll take care of everything
(Ain't, ain't, ain't nobody) tonight
Je m'appelle la flamme (ça c'est mon nom)
Set off your alarm (ooh ce soir)
Let me take you home
Bet'cha I'll take care of everything
Tonight
Tonight, make it happen for real
Make your fantasies happy, completely
Come stay with me, stay with me
Je m'appelle la flamme (ça c'est mon nom)
Set off your alarm (ooh ce soir)
Let me take you home
Bet'cha I'll take care of everything
Bet'cha I'll take care of everything
Tonight
Je m'appelle la flamme (ça c'est mon nom)
Set off your alarm (ooh ce soir)
Won't you take me home
Bet'cha I'll take care of everything tonight
Je m'appelle la flamme (ça c'est mon nom)
My name is chaka khan
Won't you take me home
Bet'cha I'll, I'll take care of everything
French lyric translations
Je m'appelle la flamme my name is the flame
Ooh, ce soir ooh tonight
Ça c'est mon nom that's my name
