[Verse 1]
Slowly fading blue, the eastern hollows
Catch the dying sun, the nighttime follows
Silence and black mirror pool
Mirrors a lonely place where I meet you
[Pre-Chorus]
See your head in the fading light
And through the dark your eyes shine bright
[Chorus]
And burn like fire, burn like fire in Cairo
And burn like fire, burn like fire in Cairo
[Verse 2]
Shifting crimson veil, silken hips
Slide under my hand, sullen lips
Whisper my name and I yearn
You take me in your arms, start to burn
[Hook]
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
[Bridge]
Then the heat disappears and the mirage fades away
[Solo]
[Hook]
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O
F-I-R-E I-N C-A-I-R-O, oh, oh
[Outro]
Burn like fire, burn like fire in Cairo
Burn like a fire in Cairo, burn like a
Fire, fire, fire, fire
Blaze like a fire in Cairo, blaze like
Fire, fire, fire, fire, flare
Burn like fire, burn like fire in Cairo
