Walking with shoes on fire Mercury rising higher Every step is closer to you I'm walking with shoes on fire Has time stopped cold The moments seem like lifetimes I crave to hold you No other thing fills my mind CHORUS Walking with shoes on fire Mercury rising higher Every step is closer to you I'm walking with shoes on fire No ache, no cut Has struck so deeply inside To see, to touch you No other piece will satisfy CHORUS Walking with shoes on fire Fever is rising higher Every step is closer to you I'm walking with shoes on fire I'm outside, lost in the dark night An orphan who longs to come home You draw me, capture and claim me More than I've ever known CHORUS Walking with shoes on fire Mercury rising higher Every step is closer to you I'm walking with shoes on fire
