This Girl's On Fire

The Thompson Twins

    Continues after the ad

    Came on a hurricane
    From a southern town
    Some place that had no name
    She's fats and furious
    And pretty boys on TV sets
    Have made her curious

    This girl's on fire
    She can't get any higher
    Right from the start
    She'll break your heart
    This girl's on fire

    Love is not what she brings
    She breathes a passion into me
    It colours all my dreams
    She says she'll never sleep
    Until this city howls and screams
    Burns down 'round her feet

    Continues after the ad

    This girl's on fire
    She can't get any higher
    Right from the start
    She'll break your heart
    This girl's on fire

    Yeah this girl's on fire
    She can't get any higher
    She's a passionate child
    You know she'll love you wild
    This girl's on fire

    I wanted to take her home
    A thousand summers all my own
    But I just let her go
    And witches still get burned
    And boys get scared at every turn
    When will they ever learn that

    This girl's on fire
    She can't get any higher
    Right from the start
    She'll break your heart
    This girl's on fire

    This girl's on fire
    She can't get any higher
    She'll leave you blind
    She'll leave you behind
    This girl's on fire
