Sophie B. Hawkins Before I Walk On Fire Lyrics

Oooh
Hmmmm
come up

I lied
I stole in the name of fear
But I won't be silent here

I don't want somewhere to run to
I don't want somebody I can shake
Lord I want my dignity again
Before I walk on fire
You gotta look me in the face
I won't flinch and I won't turn away

I'm sorry
I'm sorry for being scared
But I won't drop you there
Oh darling
Let me show you I love you
Oh world
Let me show you I care

I don't want somewhere to run to
I don't want somebody I can shake
Lord I want my dignity again
Before I walk on fire
You gotta look me in the face

Give me back my touch
Give me back my feeling
Give me everything
I wanna be your witness
I want you to believe in me

(I show you)
(You got me)
(I hold you) Let me show you now
(Inside me) Before I walk on fire
(I show you)
(You got me) Come inside me
(I hold you)
(Inside me) Before I walk on fire
(I show you) You will guide me
(You got me)
(I hold you)
(Inside me) Come on baby, walk on fire
(I show you) Come darling

(I hold you) Before I walk on fire (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
(Inside me) Come on baby
(I show you) Come on darling, yeah
(You got me) Yeah...
