Indigo Girls Lyrics

"Blood And Fire" lyrics


Words and Music: Amy Ray

I have spent nights with matches and knives
Leaning over ledges only two flights up
Cutting my heart, burning my soul
Nothing left to hold
Nothing left but blood and fire

You have spent nights thinking of me
Missing my arms but you needed to leave
Leaving my cuts, leaving my burns
Hoping I'd learn

Blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire are calling me back to your fold
And I'm callin you, calling you, from 10,000 miles away
Won't you wet my fire with your love, babe?

I am looking for someone who can take as much as I give
Give back as much as I need and still have the will to live
I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
I feel forsaken, like the things I gave away

But blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire are calling me back to your fold
And I'm callin you, callin you, from 10,000 miles away
Won't you wet my fire with your love, babe?

I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love

But blood and fire are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire are calling me back to your fold
And I'm callin you, callin you, from 10,000 miles away
Won't you wet my fire with your love, babe?
Won't you wet my fire with your love, babe?
Wet my fire with your love...
