Big Flame
Duffy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You got the moon
And stars
You get to
Light up my life
Like
A different spark
And the sky
Like a neon sign
It's the sun
And the moon
And the stars
It's shine
Chorus:
Big flame
You take control
Burning up
Like a fire
Shake my soul
Big flame
You take control
Burning up
Like a fire
Shake my soul
Fevered dreams
When you're
All alone
Summer love
In the park
I feel so stone
I got nothing to do
On this afternoon
Where I lie
Crucified
Making love to you
(Chorus)
Ooh, ooh, big flame
Ooh, ooh, big flame
Ooh, ooh, big flame
Burning up
Like a fire
Shake my soul
