Cat People (Putting Out Fire) Songtext
von Sharleen Spiteri

See these eyes so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Colder than the moon
It′s been so long
And I've been putting out fire with gasoline

See these eyes so red
Red like jungle burning bright
Those who feel me near
Pull the blinds and change their minds
Still pulsing in the night
A plague I call a heartbeat
Just be still with me

You wouldn′t believe what I've been through
Well it's been so long
Well it′s been so long
And I′ve been putting out fire with gasoline
I'm putting out fire with gasoline


See these tears so blue
An ageless heart that can never mend
These tears can never dry
A judgement made can never bend

See these eyes so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Just be still with me

You wouldn′t believe what I've been through
Well, it′s been so long
Well, its been so long
And I've been putting out fire with gasoline
I′m putting out fire with gasoline

See these eyes so red
Red like jungle burning bright
Those who feel me near
I pull the blinds and change their minds
Still pulsing in the night
A plague I call a heartbeat
Just be still with me


You wouldn't believe what I've been through
It′s been so long
Well, its been so long
And I′ve been putting out fire with gasoline
I'm putting out the fire with gasoline
With gasoline
