Quiet Fire
Melody Gardot Lyrics
I'm burning up quiet fire
Take my hand do with it what you will
I'm in dire need
Cause'
All I want is somebody to love me like I do
All I want is somebody to love me like I do
You walk away nothing left to say but bye, bye blue eyes
And I, no I don't understand
Cause'
All I want is somebody to love me like I do
All I want is somebody to love me like I do
Well you can call me half crazy call me certifiably nuts
All for love
What do you get for letting me win so easily?
Put up your dukes baby what are you made of?
This isn't right no this isn't right you know that
I'm not one to fuss but what have you done to me you hardly
Make love to me now oh my poor hearts about to bust right out of its seams
Cause'
All I want is somebody to love me like I do
All I want is somebody to love me like I do

Born on the 2nd February 1985 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Gardot took up piano and played as a youngster on the nightclub scene of Philadelphia, influenced by jazz, folk, rock, and pop musics. At the age of nineteen she was a fashion student at the Community College of Philadelphia. While cycling in Philadelphia in November 2003 she was hit by a car whose driver had ignored a red traffic light. In the accident she suffered serious head and spinal injuries, and her pelvis was broken in two places. Because of these severe injuries she was confined to her hospital bed for a year. Her musical beginning was prompted by a tending physician who was concerned with her cognitive impairment as a result of head injury sustained in the accident. He believed that music would help her brain injury improve, as it has been known to show remarkable results in improving people's cognitive ability after such trauma.
Following her doctor's suggestion, Gardot made recordings bedside, while still unable to walk, and eventually released the works as an EP: Some Lessons: The Bedroom Sessions (2005). Gardot's desire to be well, combined with a bit of luck, brought her to the attention of a local radio DJ at the AAA station WXPN (known for launching the careers of artists such as Amos Lee and Norah Jones). Her cognitive powers slowly but surely became pronounced, leading to the independent recording and release of her debut CD, Worrisome Heart, which was reissued in 2007 by Verve records.
Gardot is hypersensitive to light and noise, so wears dark glasses; she also uses a cane to walk. Onstage she requires a special seating unit, and wears a Transcutaneous Electro-Nerve Stimulator, a TENS device, to assist in alleviating her neuralgic muscle pain. Though touring is difficult, she has been performing in major cities on the East Coast of the U.S. to support her recordings. In 2009, working with producer Larry Klein and arranger Vince Mendoza - both known for their work with Joni Mitchell - Gardot followed up her Verve debut with My One and Only Thrill.
In 2012, she released the album The Absence.

"Quiet Fire"
I'm burnin' up
Burnin' oh a oh, oh oh
Quiet fire
Take, take my hand
Do with it what you will
I'm in dire need
'Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do, whoa oh oh
Well all I want is somebody to love me like I do, whoa oh
You walk away
Nothin' left to say, but
Bye bye blue eyes and I
Whoa you know that I
I don't understand
No oh, oh oh
'Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do, whoa oh oh
Well all I want is somebody to love me like I do
Well you can call me up for crazy
Call me certifiably nuts
All for love
What do you get for lettin' me win so easily?
Put up your dukes baby, what are you made of?
This isn't right, no this isn't right
You know that I'm not one to fuss
But what have you done to me?
You hardly make love to me now, whoa
My poor heart's about to burst
Right out of its seams
'Cause all I want is somebody to love me like I do, whoa oh oh
Well all I want is somebody to love me like I do
Burnin' up
Quiet fire

Sensual without being sleazy there's an underlying power beneath the lyrics, beautiful.

It's very unfortunate that artists like Melody won't get the recognition they deserve, until it's too late :(
Brooke Roeder
DominiQue White she's getting exactly the amount of attention that she wants people have it twisted. No you're not going to hear on your mainstream pop radio station because she's not mainstream pop find a station that play some jazz and you'll hear her and realize that she is recognized very much so
Dawid Dawidowski
She have it.
