Alicia Keys — Girl on Fire Live from VH1 Storytellers

[Spoken Intro] We were in the studio and I said: "What does a girl on fire sound like?" Apparently it sounds something like this This is called a CP-70 It's a very kinda old school keyboard, I love it very much And this is featured on "Girl on Fire" Yes, let me tell you [Verse 1] She's just a girl and she's on fire Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway She's living in a world and it's on fire Filled with catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away [Pre-Chorus] Oh oh oh oh oh She's got both feet on the ground And she's burning it down Oh oh oh oh oh She got her head in the clouds And she's not backing down [Chorus] This girl is on firе This girl is on fire She's walking on fire This girl is on firе Yeah [Verse 2] Looks like a girl, but she's a flame So bright, she can burn your eyes Better look the other way You can try but you'll never forget her name She's on top of the world Hottest of the hottest girls say [Pre-Chorus] Oh oh oh oh oh We got our feet on the ground And we're burning it down Oh oh oh oh oh oh We got our head in the clouds And we're not coming down [Chorus] This girl is on fire This girl is on fire She's walking on fire This girl is on fire Oh [Verse 3] Everybody stares, as she goes by 'Cause they can see the flame that's in her eyes Watch her as she's lighting up the night Nobody knows that she's a lonely girl And it's a lonely world But she gon' let it burn, baby, burn, baby [Chorus] Girl is on fire This girl is on fire She's walking on fire This girl is on fire [Outro] Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh, oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh, oh She's just a girl and she's on fire Rawr
