Godley And Creme Don`t Set Fire To The One I Love Lyrics

Don`t Set Fire To The One I Love Lyrics

What do I do when the house is shakin'

Where do I go when the window's breakin'

I'll sit in the garden

And watch the last birds fly



I'll take my time

'Cos I haven't a chance

I'm gonna sit right here

Till the mountains dance

I'm gonna lie in the garden

And kiss my ass goodbye



Then I'll run to a church

And pray for a miracle

For every saint and sinner in the world

There's a million ordinary people

Asking the question why?



Don't set fire to the one I love

Today



What's gonna happen

When they turn out the light

There'll be a big crowd

Up in heaven tonight

Will they bang, bang, bang

On the pearly gates

Till a voice says

Sorry, you left it too late

We're closed

I said we're closed

But the other place is open



Don't set fire to the one I love

Please don't set fire to the one I love

Today

Don't set fire to the one I love

I pray

Don't set fire to the one I love

Please don't set fire to the one I love

Today

Don't Don't set fire to the one I love

I pray

Don't set fire......to the world

Don't set fire......to the stars above

Don't set fire......to the universe

Don't set fire......to the one I love
