Kiss Of Fire

I'm so hungry
I can hardly think
I'm so hungry
Never mind the drinks
I live upon the boulevard
I live a life that's very hard
Won't someone, some kind soul, help me out?
Refrain (sung twice each time)

(lauren & carl)
J'ai faim, toujours
Toujours, j'ai faim
I'm hungry
Al-al-ways

Lauren: sometimes kind men
Carl: sometimes kind men
L: frequent these cafes
C: frequent these cafes
L: only blind men
C: only blind men
L: don't pause to appraise
C: don't pause to appraise
L: i love to drink cold allgote
I'd love to sample cuisines haute
Here i beg on the rue pigalle

Refrain

L & c: yes my hunger, is a shameful fact
And i want more than a snack
Maybe i'll kiss you, for a while
If you'll feed me, in high style

L: aren't you hungry c: aren't you hungry
L: for my company? c: for my company?
L: aren't you hungry? c: aren't you hungry?
L: so let's go to eat c: so let's go to eat


A life of struggle, i call mine
But we'll have fun, please pass the wine
Won't you please, take a chance on me?

Refrain

Hey!

When we are dancing and you're dangerously near me
I get ideas, i get ideas
I want to hold you, so much closer than i dare to
I want to scold you, 'cause i care more than i care too
And when you touch me, and there's fire in every finger
I get ideas, i get ideas
And after we have kissed goodnight oh still you linger
I kinda think you get ideas too


Your eyes are always saying, the things you never say
I only hope they're saying, that you could love me too
But that's the whole idea, it's true, lovely idea
That i fall in love with you

Tus ojos siempre dicen, cosas que nunca dices
Espero que me dicen que t

*whistle*
Your eyes across the room they did not smolder.
You looked so young and fine i shrugged my shoulders
I thought to myself, 'there's the door.'
I'm played out on l'amour
My nerve was up, my fear just made me bolder!


Your feet across the dance floor did not burn up
And once, for half an hour you did not turn up!
I thought to myself, 'take your time,
Talk to him, it's not your dime.'
One word occurred to me before i spurned love

Refrain (l & c):
Serendipity, is what you mean to me
Serendipity, the first warm day in spring
Serendipity, you'll be my lover for eternity
I will take one more dance
With a smile on the chance we will love.

Ha-ha!

Jeffrey: hey!

Indeed you caught my eye for you are handsome
You reminded me of edith piaf chansons
I thought to myself, 'he's so nice.'
Won't pretend i'm not surprised
Most men i"ve known are either beasts or burdens!

Refrain


[i will take one more dance
With a smile on the chance we will love.]

The night that you first touched me
You shook me from my peace, then took me from a safe place
You took me from a safe place and you stole my heart's ease


You act like a mortician, presiding at a wake
I close the lid on passion
Knowing well what's at stake
Your love consumed me wholly
At times i could not breathe
I daren't love you solely
Always felt you might leave


I offered you my soul like a humble sacrifice
You put it under a glass
Then you put it
On ice, on ice, on ice,
On ice, on ice, on ice,
On ice, on ice, on ice


And now that love has burned me
I'm waiting by the pyre
I thought my eyes were open
When i started the fire
And then to pile on insult, after the injury
You said my soul was tarnished
How you rubbed off on me!


Well now that all's been done and
We've had our last farewell
I'm burning all your letters, watching them all
Burn slow, burn slow,
Burn slow, burn slow,
(repeat)

Hello...
Chorus:
Look at the moon, reflecting the sun
The sky is so pretty
The treetops are bright
And it feels like a night on earth

People are ants, we're using our time the way we use it
We try to be strong, and face another day on earth
Or going for a ride alone
It makes me wonder where we live

The houses all go racing by
And i'm in someone's yard and
The rivers and lakes
Have rivers of roads to find our country
And birds in their eggs, and men and their guns all think the same
The motel is old, but out on the street
The sign is still pretty.
It's raining around, and all around town the town's at work
The line of people waiting to pay
At the supermarket aisle
Is a colorful sight to see
But there's no hope, just clothing


Chorus

Bed? bed -- i couldn't go to bed
My head's too light to try to settle down
Sleep? sleep -- i couldn't sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown!

I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I'd never done before
I'll never know what made it so exciting
When all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced..all night


Bubba: it's after three now
Don't you agree now
She ought to be in bed
Lauren: i could've danced...
B: your time is up
L: all night...
B: you must be dead
L: i could have danced...
B: your face is drawn
L: all night...
B: your eyes are red
L: and still...
B: now say goodnight
L: have begged...
B: please, turn out the light
L: for more.
B: please, it's really time for you to be in bed
L: i could have spread...
B: just come along
L: my wings...
B: do as you're told
L: and done a thousand...
B: or mr. finch
L: things
B: is apt to scold
L: i'd nev-
B: you're up too late
L: -er done...
B: please, i'm sure it's late
L: before.
B: please, or as sure as fate you'll catch a cold
L: i'll never know what made it so exciting
When all at once my heart took flight
I only know
B: put down that book
L: when he...
B: the book can keep
L: began to dance...
B: now settle down
L: with me...
B: and go to sleep
L: i could have...
L & b: ...danced, danced, danced...all night.
