En Fuego

En Fuego

En Fuego were the words that came to me
When she blew smoke
So intoxicatingly
But where there’s smoke
Something’s getting burned
I guess it was my turn

Chorus:
I sit lost among the embers
Crying smoky tears
Trying to crawl out of these ashes
Now it’s become too clear
That she needs love
like a fire needs wood
But I’d burn for her again
If I only could


En Fuego, Maria played her part so well
just like the song
into the burning ring I fell
I played the fool
that got caught up in the thrill
blind to what her fiery eyes concealed

(Chorus)

I still long
For the burning of her touch
My heart is charred
You’d think I’d have had enough
Then come the flames
I just need a taste
Before I get replaced
