Fire Tonight Lyrics - Information Society

Well, there's a hot wind blowing tonight in the east 

And I heard that the park is filled tonight with police 

On the radio there's nothing but a man saying 

To stay inside 

Well, I remember what you said on the telephone 

That you didn't feel like it was safe to stay alone 

And you would get yourself to me if you could find 

A way across the line 

But there's fire tonight on your side of town 

Orange light in the sky without a sound 

Well, there's a faint sound of sirens tonight in the air 

And I heard that the downtown streets tonight are bare 

On the TV here they're telling me the roads now 

All closed down 

You said that if you couldn't take the car you'd walk instead 

It was the last thing you said before the line went dead 

And now I'm waiting by the window holding all the things 

Of yours I've found 

But there's fire tonight on your side of town 

Orange light in the sky without a sound 

Fire tonight on your side of town 

I watch and wait for you to come around 

I know we always said that we were free 

I know we never thought this would succeed 

But now your face is all that I can see 

And there's fire tonight on your side of town 

Orange light in the sky without a sound 

Fire tonight on your side of town 

I watch and wait for you to come around
