Fire Written By Cohen Performed In Night Magic Lyrics

Michael)         I burnt the house of love tonight

                  It made a perfect ring

                  In which I saw some weeds and stone

                  Beyond not anything

                  

                  Certain creatures of the air

                  Frightened by the night

                  They came to see the world again

                  And they perished in the light

                  

                  So now I sail from sky to sky

                  And all the blackness sings

                  Against the boat that I have made

                  Of mutilated wings

                  

                  Fire in this house of mine

                  Fire of my own design

                  Fire from the sky

                  Fire from the sea

                  Come fire come

                  Fire onto thee

                  Fire in the house of love

                  

                  I burnt the house of love tonight

                  I burnt the house of love tonight

                  I burnt the house of love tonight
