Fire Tonight Lyrics

Well, there's a hot wind blowing tonight in the east
And I heard that the park is filled tonight with police
On the radio there's nothing but a man saying
To stay insideWell, I remember what you said on the telephone
That you didn't feel like it was safe to stay alone
And you would get yourself to me if you could find
A way across the lineBut there's fire tonight on your side of town
Orange light in the sky without a soundWell, there's a faint sound of sirens tonight in the air
And I heard that the downtown streets tonight are bare
On the TV here they're telling me the roads now
All closed downYou said that if you couldn't take the car you'd walk instead
It was the last thing you said before the line went dead
And now I'm waiting by the window holding all the things
Of yours I've foundBut there's fire tonight on your side of town
Orange light in the sky without a sound
Fire tonight on your side of town
I watch and wait for you to come aroundI know we always said that we were free
I know we never thought this would succeed

But now your face is all that I can seeAnd there's fire tonight on your side of town
Orange light in the sky without a sound
Fire tonight on your side of town
I watch and wait for you to come around
