Live Wire
Jennifer Rush Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You take one in a million
One walk on a crowded street
Take anything you like babe
But just take me to
I've got no easy answers
No guarantees you'll see
Just take me as I am babe
Cause I want you

Oh, woh, I'm out on the edge for you
Oh, woh, you got me leaning
I'm flowing over
You're hot
You're a live wire
I feel the heat
I see the fire
You're hot
You're a live wire
And you're burning me
Baby you're a live wire

You take one lonely rider
Or two people alone in this world
Just put them together
That's me and you
I know you've always been a fighter
You go for what you want
Well I've been going for a long time
Right towards you

Oh, woh, I'm out on the edge for you
Oh, woh, you got me leaning
I'm flowing over
You're hot
You're a live wire
I feel the heat
I see the fire
You're hot
You're a live wire
And you're burning me
Baby you're a live wire

Oh, woh, I'm out on the edge for you
Oh, woh, you got me leaning
I'm flowing over
You're hot
You're a live wire
I feel the heat
I see the fire
You're hot
You're a live wire
And you're burning me
Baby you're a live wire

You're a live wire baby ooo ooo
You're a live wire baby ooo ooo

You're a live wire baby ooo ooo
You're a live wire baby ooo ooo
