Love, Where Is Your Fire?

Brooke Fraser
Album : Albertine

Love where is your fire
I've been sitting here smoking away
Making signals with sticks
and odd ends and bits
But still there's no sign of a flame
Imposters have been passing
offering a good feeling glow
But I'm holding out for
what you are about
an inferno that burns to the bone
Some urge me to be temperate
lukewarm will never do
'Cause I I wanna know I'll blaze with you
So I'm holding my heart out to you
Holding my heart out
So I stand handing out torches
Speaking words that are lamps to their feet
Til' the time when you come and I'm whole and we are one and the fire in me is complete
Some tell me to be moderate
but lukewarm will never do
'Cause I I wanna know I'll blaze with you
So I'm holding my heart out to you
Holding my heart out
Then a doubt comes to lie
at the back of my mind
That I'll offer you me and
you'll politely decline no thank you
So I hasten to mute it
I'll shout and rebuke it away
'Cause I I wanna know I'll blaze with you
So I'm holding my heart out to you
Holding my heart out
