fire it up
she's sitting staring out a window trying to figure out just what to do the last time that she gave her heart away it came back broken in two like an old abandoned car she parked it down off lonely avenue and she forget about it till the day she laid her eves on you and her heart said: "fire it up" and her soul said: "fire it up" and her mind said: "fire it up" let love live again he's sitting in a subway station watching as the trains go flying by he used to hate the black man till a black man reached out and saved his life he was pulled out of the darkness rescued and blinded by the light ain't it crazy how one simple act of kindness can open up our eyes and her heart said: "fire it up" and her soul said: "fire it up" and her mind said: "fire it up" let love live again here we are together you and me still trying to figure out the world searching for a reason to believe what makes this big ball turn? but if we hold on to each other give love show love for all love's worth yeah they might call us crazy but tell me who's it gonna hurt? who's it gonna hurt? and her heart said: "fire it up" and her soul said: "fire it up" and her mind said: "fire it up" let love live again and her heart said: "fire it up" and her soul said: "fire it up" and her mind said: "fire it up" let love live again
