Slowly fading blue, the eastern hollows
Catch the dying sun, night time follows
Silent and black mirror pool
Mirrors the lonely place where I meet youSee your head in the fading light
Through the dark your eyes shine brightBurn like fire
Burn like fire in Cairo
Burn like fire
Burn like fire in CairoShifting crimson veil, silken hips
Slide it under my hand, swollen lips
Whisper my name and I yearn
You take me in your arms, start to burnF I R E I N C A I R O
F I R E I N C A I R O
F I R E I N C A I R O
Then the heat disappears and the mirage fades awayF I R E I N C A I R O
F I R E I N C A I R O
F I R E I N C A I R O
F I R E I N C A I R OF I R E I N C A I R O
F I R E I N C A I R O
F I R E I N C A I R O
F I R E I N C A I R OBurn like fire in Cairo, burn like a fire in Cairo
Burn like a fire fire fire fire fire
Blaze like a fire in Cairo
Blaze like fire fire fire fire fire, flareBurn like fire
Burn like fire in Cairo
