how in the world can you be humble with that obvious fire in your eyes why in the world can i not find the answer, why? how can you live knowing this fire is suddenly burning in my heart why have you sparked my interest right from the start? my temperature's climbing let's talk about timing strike the match, let's go rising faster, a potential disaster i've only felt this long ago we're gonna ignite the night ignore the heat it'll be alright put out the fire tomorrow blaze it up to the sky can i borrow your fahrenheit tonight? (we're gonna ignite) how in the world can you think clearly when you started a fire-alarm desire and you've given me a fever the mercury's surging higher and they're calling for a heatwave beat the sweat above your eyes please don't let the smoke rise it'll show them where we lie my temperature's climbing we'll talk about timing strike the match, let's go rising faster, a potential disaster i've only felt this long ago we're gonna ignite the night ignore the heat it'll be alright put out the fire tomorrow blaze it up to the sky can i borrow your fahrenheit tonight? (x2) if your body should ever find another flame and leave our ashes behind just one burning glimpse into my eyes will show you that we were meant to ignite we're gonna ignite the night ignore the heat it'll be alright put out the fire tomorrow blaze it up to the sky can i borrow your fahrenheit tonight? (x2)
