You know that it would be untrue.
You know that I would be a liar
if I was to say to you , ay,
Girl we couldn't get much higher.
Come on baby light my fire, come on baby light my fire.
Try to set the night on fire. Mm-m,

The time for hesitation's through.
There's no time to wallow in the mire
Darling we could only lose
and our love become a funeral pyre.
Come on baby light my fire, come on baby light my fire.
Try to set the night on fire.

Well, you know that it would be untrue
and you know that I would be a liar
if I was to go and tell you
Mama we couldn't get much higher.
Yeah, come on baby light my fire.
Come on baby light my fire yeah
Try to set the night on fire, ay hey-hey

Come on baby light, light my fire yeah
Come on babe light my fire, don't you know it's alright?
Light my fire, light my fire, light my fire
Oh, light my fire, light my fire, light my fire, yeah girl
Girl you better light my fire yeah, 
You better light, you better light, you better light my fire 
and we are going to get much higher

Oh-oh, come on girl,
You know I love you girl, you know I need you babe
Come on, Light, light, light, light my fire
Light my fire, light my fire 
Light my fire, light my fire, light my fire
Light, light, light, light, light my
my, my, my fire
Light, light, light, light, light my fire girl
you better light my fire
