Hearts On Fire

Steve Winwood

Night was falling and my chances were low

Nothing was happening, I was ready to go

Then I saw her walking through that door

And I knew right then I had to get me some more



Moved up close, up next to the bar

There she sat, lookin' like a movie star

Went up and asked her, 'Do you mind if I sit?'

She said, 'No, but if you see a chance, you'd better take it.'

Just the two of us sat talking together

The music and people all drifting away



Hearts on fire, burning with love

We were written in the stars above

Take us higher to the things that we know

There's no other place we can go



Told her everything that happened to me

A thousand limousines and the women for free

She said, 'That's when these words'll ring true -

You ain't nobody 'till somebody loves you.'

Love came to me the minute I saw her

I wanted to make her part of my life



Just the two of us sat talking together

I wanted to make her part of my life
