Jethro Tull – Fire At Midnight lyrics

Fire At Midnight

I believe in fires at midnight when the dogs have all been fed
A golden toddy on the mantle, a broken gun beneath the bed
Silken mist outside the window, frogs and newts slip in the dark
Too much hurry ruins the body, I'll sit easy, fan the spark
Kindled by the dying embers of another working day
Go upstairs, take off your makeup, fold your clothes neatly away
Me, I'll sit and write this love song as I all too seldom do
Build a little fire this midnight, it's good to be back home with you

Kindled by the dying embers of another working day
Go upstairs, take off your makeup, fold your clothes neatly away
Me, I'll sit and write this love song as I all too seldom do
Build a little fire this midnight, it's good to be back home with you
