Fire on the River
Embers of Passion: August Lows' Fire on the River Story
Lyrics
Down the river road
Setting the scene, moving down a river road.
Windows down smoke rolling like coal
Driving with windows down, emitting smoke, reminiscent of coal.
We were high on everything and anything at all
Being under the influence of various substances.
She had on a black shirt
Describing the woman's attire.
Long blonde hair and a blue jean skirt
Further details about the woman's appearance.
She had her eye's all over me
The woman showing interest in the narrator.
My ole heart was dead and gone
The narrator feeling emotionally disconnected or numb.
I parked down by the river side
Parking by the river.
Before the engine stopped she had her lips on mine
Quickly initiating a passionate kiss.
And them flames came out of that girl like I'd never seen before
The woman's intense passion surprises the narrator.
And we were fire on the river that night
Describing the passionate encounter as fire on the river.
Oh what a beautiful sight
Expressing awe at the beauty of the experience.
I can't forget that look in her eyes
The unforgettable expression in the woman's eyes.
Yeah we were fire on the river that night
Reiterating the fiery passion on the river.
Them stars in the night sky
Referring to the stars in the night sky.
Made me want to go again just one more time
Feeling compelled to experience it again.
And by the look on her face she was down for another round
The woman eager for another passionate encounter.
Yeah the way she said my name
The woman saying the narrator's name with intensity.
Was like pouring gasoline on a burning flame
Comparing the impact to pouring gasoline on a burning flame.
And no amount of water was going to put me out
Expressing an unstoppable desire despite challenges.
And we were fire on the river that night
Reiterating the fiery experience on the river.
Oh what a beautiful sight
Emphasizing the beauty of the sight.
I can't forget that look in her eyes
Recalling the intense look in the woman's eyes.
Yeah we were fire on the river that night
Reaffirming the passionate encounter on the river.
And we were fire on the river that night
Continuing to describe the fiery experience.
Oh what a beautiful sight
Repeating the admiration for the beautiful sight.
I can't forget that look in her eyes
Echoing the memory of the intense look in her eyes.
Yeah we were fire on the river that night
Reiterating the passionate encounter on the river.
Yeah, fire on the river that night
Final confirmation of the fiery experience on the river.
