[VERSE 1]

It was a four letter word

It's the simplest of rituals to observe

You keep on driving until something breaks

'Til I find you in the dark

Hot and heavy in the floodlights of a park

You're a gold star fallen from its natural plane

[Chorus]

I hit him in the head with a rollerskate

Put him in a dentist's chair

And everybody's asking do I care. It's hard to control it

Well I do what you ask, but I can't forget the past

It's peace I desire but I can't put the fire out or

I'd be in darkness again

[VERSE 2]

Is there something in your eye?

It gets harder to ignore it in the night

When the whole world's sleeping, and we're not side by side

You were braver at the start---

Now if you want it, you can find it in a bar

Will you keep on driving 'til the feeling dies?

[Chorus]

I hit him in the head with a rollerskate

Put him in a dentist's chair

And everybody's asking do I care. It's hard to explain it

'Cause I do what you ask, but I can't forget the past

It's peace I desire but I can't put the fire out or

I'd be in darkness again

[OUTRO]

I couldn't want you more

I couldn't want you more

I couldn't want you more than this

(I'm a fire

[???????]

I can't put it out

I'll never reach you tonight...

I'm a fire

In the night

I can't put it out

Light through the winter...)
