INDIGO GIRLS - Blood & Fire lyrics

rate me

I have spent nights with matches and knives<br>Leaning over ledges only two flights up<br>Cutting my heart, burning my soul<br>Nothing left to hold<br>Nothing left but blood and fire<br><br>You have spent nights thinking of me<br>Missing my arms but you needed to leave<br>Leaving my cuts, leaving my burns<br>Hoping I'd learn<br><br>But blood and fire<br>Are too much for these restless arms to hold<br>And my nights of desire they're calling me<br>Back to your fold<br>And I am calling you, calling you<br>From 10,000 miles away<br>Won't you whet my fire with your love<br>Babe<br><br>I am looking for someone who can take as much as I give<br>And give back as much as I need<br>You know and they still have the will to live ah no<br>Cause I am intense, I am in need<br>I am in pain, I am in love<br>And I feel forsaken you know<br>Like the things I gave away<br><br>And blood and fire<br>Are too much for these restless arms to hold<br>And my nights of desire they're calling me<br>Back to your fold<br>And I am calling you, calling you<br>From 10,000 miles away<br>Won't you whet my fire with your love<br>Babe, babe, babe<br><br>I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love<br>You know I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love<br>I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love<br>And blood and fire<br>Are too much for these restless arms to hold<br>And my nights of desire they're calling me<br>Back to your fold<br>And I am calling you, calling you<br>From 10,000 miles away<br>Won't you whet my fire with your love<br>Babe<br>Won't you whet my fire with your love<br>Babe now<br>Whet my fire with your love
