lyrics

Fire

My light was out
I was turned off
Spent sleepless nights
Worrying bout paths left uncrossed

Then you came along
With your bag of tricks
You lit me up Baby
Yes you know you did

I’m electrified
In your presence
Now my sleepless nights
Spent worrying bout your intentions

Pre Chorus:
You can give me what I want
But can you give me what I need
And the only way through this is to burn
C:
And I’m on Fire
I’m on Fire

V2: Won’t you put me out
Turn me to ash
You fan my flames with every
Naughty Pass

I need some water
Pour it on me babe
You gotta cool me down
Before I blaze

You can give me what I want
But can you give me what I need

C: And the only way through this is to Burn
And I’m on Fire
I’m on Fire

Breakdown:
Burn baby burn baby burn x’s 4

You can give me what I want
I think that you can you give me what I need
And the only way through this is to Burn
And I’m on Fire
I’m on Fire
I’m on Fire
I’m on Fire
Burn baby burn baby burn

about

Ingrid Gerdes image

Ingrid Gerdes Boston, Massachusetts

Boston soul singer Ingrid Gerdes’ gospel-meets-R&B voice has earned
her more than one comparison to greats like Irma Thomas and Mavis
Staples, and the title of her new album, High Priestess, helps conjure images of a vocalist trained in a Mississippi Delta choir loft, spending
Sundays praising the Lord and raising the roof. ... more
