[Verse 1]
Every day was a Christian holiday
We held each other
When we prayed in our own way
Wait up, wait for me
I've had enough of being young and free
Everybody has a mild crucifixion
I first saw you as my benediction
I am sorry you became my addiction
My game, my cold affliction

[Chorus]
Did you see the fire brigade
Steed heavy and filled with rage
Through the city, dissolve my fire
After dinner, I was burning with desire
They can never burn out my love for you

[Verse 2]
I heard you're used to makin' love on a Tuesday
He'd flip you over this way and that way
Everybody makes love in their own way
"It's just a word, haven't you heard,"
You said the other day
Hold my hand and rip at the seams
I'm not a Catholic but I know what it means
Edge of heaven is the edge of hell
That's what it felt like, the bottom of the wishing well
[Chorus]
Did you see the fire brigade
Steed heavy and filled with rage
Through the city, dissolve my fire
After dinner, I was burning with desire
They can never burn out my love for you
Did you see the fire brigade
Nineteen, a girl of my age
Lipstick red and on the run
I take a look at what I've become
They can never burn out my love for you
