Smoke and Fire

Dive bars Jumping between cable cars Driving in the fast lane Riding on the last train Green lanes Running through the June rain The pleasure and the deep pain Petrol and a match flame I know you see me Through smoke and fire Mile end Glances at the drive in Fingers barely touching Electric through our bodies Hackney Running down the River Lea And you hold my hand so tightly Seconds till the bus leaves I know you see me Through smoke and fire All of my fears burn I’m on fire love 23 once
