This girl's on fire


Came on a hurricane
From a southern town
Some place that had no name
She's fats and furious
And pretty boys on TV sets
Have made her curious
(chorus)
This girl's on fire
She can't get any higher
Right from the start
She'll break your heart
This girl's on fire
Love is not what she brings
She breathes a passion into me
It colours all my dreams
She says she'll never sleep
Until this city howls and screams
Burns down 'round her feet
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Yeah this girl's on fire
She can't get any higher
She's a passionate child
You know she'll love you wild
This girl's on fire
I wanted to take her home
A thousand summers all my own
But I just let her go
And witches still get burned
And boys get scared at every turn
When will they ever learn that
(REPEAT CHORUS)
This girl's on fire
She can't get any higher
She'll leave you blind
She'll leave you behind
This girl's on fire

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Tom Bailey (vocals, guitar, synthesizer) Alannah Currie (marimba, xylophone, percussion, background vocals) and Joe Leeway (synthesizer, congas, background vocals) together known as Thompson Twins were an 80's synthpop group. TT where made famous when their first hit single "In the Name of Love" reached the top of the US dance charts and stayed there for five weeks. They found superstardom with the release of their fourth studio album Into the Gap (1984) which spun four hit singles "Hold Me Now", "Doctor! Doctor!", "Sister of Mercy" and "You Take Me Up". Their final album as a trio Here's to Future Days was released in 1985 amidst a nervous break-down for Bailey, forcing the band to cancel tour dates in the UK. Here's to Future Days spawned the hits "Lay Your Hands On Me" and "King For A Day" but was considerably less successful than Into the Gap and signaled the end of Thompson Twins' commercial success.
