Fire On The Water
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I touch you I can feel you shivering
I can feel your heart is beating fast
We are alone in this crowded room
Oh, tonight there is something happening
And it's something that should never be
But there's a flame over you and me
And I can see the fire on water
I can see the light shining in your eyes
I know that I can't stop it now
'Cause I've been caught in the heat of the Sun
There's a place and an ancient fortress
High above the worries of the world
I'd love you there for a long, long time
And we'll discover all our deepest secrets
And let the spirit go flying free
Until the dawn breaks over the sea
It's burning like fire on the water
I can see the light shining in your eyes
I know that I can't stop it now
'Cause I've been caught in the heat of the Sun
Yes I've been caught in the heat of the Sun
Oh, let it shine on me
And I can see the fire on the water
I can see the light shining in your eyes
I know that I can't stop it now
" Cause I've been caught in the heat of the Sun
Yes I've been caught in the heat of the Sun
Oh, let it shine on me
And I can see the fire on the water
Can't stop it now
