Im On Fire
Fabiola Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why... oh, baby tell me why
Why did you say goodbye
Oh, baby tell me why
Why did you say goodbye?

The way you treat me, baby,
I must be blind,
Not to see that I am wasting time.
I've got this fire, fire burning,
I've got this fire, fire burning,
I'm on fire

Why oh, baby tell me why
Why did you say goodbye
Oh, baby tell me why
Why did you say goodbye
Oh, baby tell me why
Why did you say goodbye?

The time we spent together in harmony
The wildest moments in my fantasy
I've got this fire, fire burning
I'm on fire
I've got this fire, fire burning
I'm on fire

Why oh, baby tell me why
Why did you say goodbye
Oh, baby tell me why!
Why did you say goodbye?
Why oh, baby tell me why
Why did you say goodbye
Oh, baby tell me why
Why did you say goodbye?




Why? Oh baby tell me why!
Why did you say goodbye?

Brutal, después de 18 años buscándolo por fin lo encuentro. Culpa del de la radio que la primera vez que lo oí dijo que era del '98, lo fuerte es que suena a ese año por su pitador tipo trance.
