Song lyrics

She's sitting staring out a window,
Trying to figure out just what to do.
The last time that she gave her heart away
It came back broken in two.
Like an old abandoned car
She parked it down off Lonely Avenue,
And she forget about it till the day
She laid her eyes on you.

And her heart said: "Fire it up",
And her soul said: "Fire it up",
And her mind said: "Fire it up!
Let love live again!"

He's sitting in a subway station
Watching as the trains go flying by.
He used to hate the black men till a black man
Reached out and saved his life.
He was pulled out of the darkness,
Rescued and blinded by the light.
Ain't it crazy how one simple act of kindness
Can open up our eyes?

And let your heart say: "Fire it up",
And let your soul say: "Fire it up",
And let your mind say: "Fire it up!
Let love live again!"

Here we are together, you and me,
Still trying to figure out this world,
Searching for a reason to believe
What makes this big ball turn?
But if we hold on to each other,
Give love, show love for all love's worth,
Yeah, they might call us crazy,
But, tell me who's it gonna hurt?
Who's it gonna hurt?

And let our hearts say: "Fire it up!",
And let our souls say: "Fire it up!",
And let our minds said: "Fire it up!
Let love live again!"

And let your hearts say: "Fire it up",
And let your souls say: "Fire it up",
And let your minds say: "Fire it up!
Let love live again!"
