Fire In Cairo Lyrics

The song Fire In Cairo is performed by The Cure in the album named Boys Don't Cry in the year 1990 .



Slowly fading blue, the eastern hollows
Catch the dying sun, night time follows
Silent and black mirror pool
Mirrors the lonely place where I meet you

See your head in the fading light
Through the dark your eyes shine bright

Burn like fire
Burn like fire in Cairo
Burn like fire
Burn like fire in Cairo

Shifting crimson veil, silken hips
Slide it under my hand, swollen lips
Whisper my name and I yearn
You take me in your arms, start to burn

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
Then the heat disappears and the mirage fades away

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

Burn like fire in Cairo, burn like a fire in Cairo
Burn like a fire fire fire fire fire
Blaze like a fire in Cairo
Blaze like fire fire fire fire fire, flare

Burn like fire
Burn like fire in Cairo
