Ooh there's something burning in the air
Ooh there's something burning in the air
The fire's spreading everywhere
Ooh the fire's spreading everywhere
She's counting her time
She'll be just fine
She's counting the day
Come what may
She's counting her time
She'll be just fine
She's counting the day
Come what may
Stars explode
Moons erode
And she waits there
A few hundred million miles above the sea
Stars explode
Moons erode and she waits there
She waits there for me
She waits there for me
Unhappy woman
Unhappy woman
Unhappy, unhappy woman
And I am an unhappy man
(A few hundred million miles above the sea)
She knows it's ready when
Her eyes are almost open
The moon is blue and dim
The tide is surely rushing in
She knows it's ready when
Her eyes are almost open
The thunder moves her skin
Let's hope that she knows how to swim
Unhappy woman
Unhappy woman
Ooh there's something burning in the air
Ooh there's something burning in the air
The fire's spreading everywhere
Ooh the fire's spreading everywhere
