Hold Your Fire (1992)




















Reach For The Sky lyrics - Firehouse

Well I'm an outlaw
I make my living on the run
My life is lonely
But I was born to need no one
Always on my own

Oh'

My gun is loaded
I'm a six-shot heart attack
I pull the trigger
So you better watch your back

Looking out for #1 so you had better take this piece of advice
Make your move
Stick 'em up or kiss your ass goodbye

[Chorus:]
Reach for the sky
Or I will shoot you down in the blink of an eye
Reach for the sky
There's nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Reach for the sky
I got the drop on you so raise them high
Reach for the sky

Well it's a show down
This is what I do for fun
I got a reputation
Yeah I'm the fastest gun
I'm livin' on the highway
Movin' on from town to town
You better do it my way
Or I will shoot you down

Looking out for #1 so you had better take this piece of advice
Make your move
Stick 'em up or kiss your ass goodbye

[Chorus]

Take you best shot
Oh go for your guns baby

Reach for the sky
Or I will shoot you down in the blink of an eye
Reach for the sky
There's nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Reach for the sky
Or I will shoot you down in the blink of an eye
Reach for the sky
There's nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Reach for the sky
I got the drop on you so raise them high
Reach for the sky
Oh reach for the sky

Sleeping With You lyrics - Firehouse

I don't care what they say
I know this is right
Because I feel it deep in my heart
They say we're young and wild
And we should wait for a while
But nothing's gonna keep us apart

But I don't think we're living in sin
So we can't give up, we can't give in
Because our love is strong, and it can't be wrong
Oo and it feels so right

[Chorus:]
So I'll be sleeping with you tonight
We'll be together tonight
I don't care if it's wrong or right
I'll be sleeping with you
Sleeping with you tonight

So let's give it a try. I know we'll get by
Because our love's enough to see us through
Well if we take a chance, we can make it at last
I know that it's the right thing to do

But I don't think we're living in sin
So we can't give up, we can't give in
Because our love is strong, and it can't we wrong
Oh and it feels so right

[Chorus]

'Cause our love is so strong
And nothing's gonna keep us apart

Sleeping with you tonight
We'll be together tonight
Well I don't care if it's wrong or right
I'll be sleeping with you
I'll be sleeping with you tonight
We'll be together tonight
I don't care if it's wrong or right
I'll be sleeping with you,
Sleeping with you tonight
Yeah sleeping with you
Sleeping with you tonight

You're Too Bad lyrics - Firehouse

When I first laid eyes on you
Well I knew that you were trouble, and you're too good to be true
The second time I looked your way
I knew that you were guilty, it was written all over your face

Well the way you misbehave is criminal
But it only makes me want you more and more

[Chorus:]
You're too bad, too bad for your own damn good
Woo you never act just like you should
You're too bad, too bad for your own damn good
Too bad for your own damn good

Well you don't know right from wrong
You keep lyin', cheatin', stealin', and the list goes on and on
With you evil, wicked, nasty ways
The devil will catch up with you and put you in your place

Well the way you misbehave is criminal
But it only makes me want you more and more

[Chorus]

You're to bad

Hey, you know you're always up to no good
But I like that
You're to bad, too bad for your own damn good
Woo you never act just like you should
You're too bad, too bad for you own damn good
Baby you know that
You're too bad, too bad for your own damn good
Too bad for your own damn good

You're too bad

When I Look Into Your Eyes lyrics - Firehouse

I see forever when I look in your eyes
You're all I've ever wanted
I always want you to be mine
Let's make a promise to the end of time
We'll always be together
And our love will never die

So here we are face to face and heart to heart
I want you to know we will never be apart
Now I believe that wishes can come true
'Cause when I see my whole world
I see only you

[Chorus]
When I look into your eyes
I can see how much I love you
And it makes me realize
When I look into your eyes
I see all my dreams come true
When I look into your eyes

I've looked for you all of my life
Now that I've found you
We will never say good-bye
Can't stop this feelin'
And there's nothing I can do
'Cause I see everything
When I look at you

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

Hold Your Fire lyrics - Firehouse

I'm like a loaded gun I got you in my sight
And you're the only one I want to shoot tonight
Ready and able the trigger to fire
Locked on target for my desire
Got you covered and there's nothing that you can do
But say

[Chorus:]
Hold your fire
Hold your fire

I'm speeding like a bullet never miss my mark
With infrared eyes that can see in the dark
Actions semi-automatic
Satisfaction the instant I hit
I got you covered and there's
Nothing that you can do
But say

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

The Meaning Of Love lyrics - Firehouse

Well I never was one to believe
I thought love was a fantasy
But honey you made a believer of me
Now I know it's true
Now they say this will last forever
Just as long as we stay together
So now we can see just what love is to me and to you

Well I tried to find the answer in the book of love
But that didn't give me a clue
What I found a definition it was for love
It was you

Well I never knew the meaning of love
Now I just can't get enough
I never knew the meaning of love
'Till I met you
I never knew the meaning of love

Well I never quite understood
How could love make you feel so good
When I looked at you it was then that I knew it was true

Now it all makes sense to me
You've got to take love seriously
Only you made it clear that the meaning of love
Is you

I never knew the meaning of love
Now I just can't get enough
I never knew the meaning of love
Till I met you
I never knew the meaning of love
Now I just can't get enough
I never knew the meaning of love
Till I met you
I never knew the meaning of love
The meaning of love

[Repeat]

Talk Of The Town lyrics - Firehouse

Everywhere in this city
Word is getting around
About a girl who's so damn pretty
She's the talk of the town
Dressed in black she's a heart attack
Well she's a hard one to tame
Ooh she's livin' up to her reputation
She's livin' up to her name

Everywhere she goes she gets everyone talkin', talkin'
And anytime she's anywhere around
Everybody says she's the talk of the town

[Chorus:]
Oh my, my she's so fine
And she's the talk of the town
Oughta know by now
She's the talk of the town
Well she's the talk of the town

Built to kill with body language
She's got them talkin' about her
She makes the best of a sticky situation
That's the kind of thing

Everywhere she goes she gets
Everyone talkin', talkin'
And anytime she's anywhere around
Everybody says she's the talk of the town

[Chorus]

The talk of the town
Now she's the talk of the town

Life In The Real World lyrics - Firehouse

Got you working the nine-to-five
Well every day
It's all you can do just to stay alive
Wasting your time away
There's got to be a better way

[Chorus:]
Living life in the real world
Well it's an uphill climb
Living life in the real world
Time after time, they knock you down
You gotta get up, you gotta live your life in the real world

With every second it slips away
It's getting harder to see
How you can be the best that you can be
Wasting your time away
There's got to be a better way

[Chorus]

Nobody ever told you it would be like this in the real world
Fame and fortune's nothing but a hit-and-miss
When you realize
You're living in the real world

[Chorus]

[Chorus (repeat)]

Life in the real world

Mama Didn't Raise No Fool lyrics - Firehouse

Well listen up to what I say
I wasn't born just yesterday
I've been down the road and back a time or two
Well this should come as no surprise
You can't pull the wool over my eyes
I've had it up to here and now I'm through

And I'm sick and tired of fools
Tired of playing by the rules
Time to strut my cool
'Cause mama didn't raise no fool

[Chorus:]
Mama didn't raise no fool
Well my mama didn't raise no fool
You can't tell me what to do
'Cause my mama didn't raise no fool

What goes around comes back around
And I've been around a few times by now
I've seen it all before and I've paid my dues
So don't tell me no stories
And don't tell me no lies
'Cause my mother brought me up to be a bad mother too

And I'm sick and tired of fools
Tired of playing by the rules
Time to strut my cool
'Cause my mama didn't raise no fool

Mama didn't raise no fool
Well my mama didn't raise no fool
You can't tell me what to do
'Cause mama didn't raise, mama didn't raise
Mama didn't raise no fool

[Chorus]

[Chorus (repeat)]

[Chorus (repeat)]

Hold The Dream lyrics - Firehouse

When you're lost and lonely
And you feel you can't go on
In the blink of any eye, you could throw it all away
You can turn your world around
Show them all what you can do
Just believe, and trust your heart to see you through

A dream so real, you can feel it in the palm of your hand
So hang onto tomorrow
And never look back again

[Chorus:]
Hold the dream
Don't ever let it go
Hold the dream

Don't ever let it get you down
When they turn their back on you
Just do what feels right for you
You can find what you're looking for
Don't get lost along the way
Always be strong. Your heart can't be wrong
Don't give up and your dreams will come true

A dream so real
You can feel it in the palm of your hand
So hang onto tomorrow
And never look back again

[Chorus]

Hang onto tomorrow
Hold the dream
Don't ever let it go
Hold the dream
Hold the dream

[Chorus]

Hang onto tomorrow
Hold the dream
Don't ever let it go
Hold the dream
Hang onto tomorrow
Hold the dream
Don't ever let it go
Hold the dream
Hold the dream

Rock On The Radio lyrics - Firehouse

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Every night and every day
I know what I need to get blown away
I turn it on to overload
And let the power of the sound explode

So come on, everybody let's go
Turn it up - I just gotta have some more
(Gimme that)

[Chorus:]
Rock on the radio
You turn it up 'till your speakers blow
Rock on the radio
Come on, come on everybody let's go

Like thunder, like dynamite
Ya know I'm gonna blow my speakers up tonight
I'm ready, going all the way
'Cause rock on the radio is here to stay

So come on, everybody let's go
Turn in up - I just gotta have some more
(Gimme that)

[Chorus]

All She Wrote lyrics - Firehouse

Bye-bye baby bye-bye
And that was all she wrote

I got home late on a Saturday night
And I knew right away something wasn't right
I knew she was gone
She took all I had, but left a hole in my heart
Should've known it'd go bad right from the start
What did I do wrong

I can't understand why she would leave me this way
With nothing to say
Then I found the note on the door
It said good-bye and she don't want me no more

Bye-bye baby, bye-bye she said in the letter
And that was all she wrote
Guess this is good-bye, guess this is forever
And that was all she wrote

I called on the phone but she wasn't there
Should've known all along that she just didn't care
Why did she have to go
Now I look at her picture and I wonder why
She left me this way - why did she say good-bye
I guess I'll never know

I can't understand why she would leave me this way
With nothing to say
I remember the note on the door
It said good-bye and she don't want me no more

Bye-bye baby, bye-bye she said in the letter
And that was all she wrote
Guess this is good-bye, guess this is forever
And that was all she wrote

Shake & Tumble lyrics - Firehouse

Turn up the jukebox
We're gonna tear this damn place down
Lookin' for action
Yeah, wherever it can be found
I ain't no Johnny-come-lately
I'm Johnny-on-the-spot
I don't need no lady
I need a woman that gets me hot
Too naughty to be nice, too bad to be good
I'm all shook up, b-b-b-baby I don't know what to do
Got that rhythm and it makes me lose control
When we...

[Chorus:]
Shake and tumble
Shake and tumble down with me baby
Shake and tumble down
I need a woman that can make me
Shake and tumble down (aw yeah)

Body slammin'
Gotcha on the floor
D-down and dirty
Is what I'm lookin' for

Got that rhythm and it makes me lose control
When we...

[Chorus]

Don't Treat Me Bad lyrics - Firehouse

I never thought you'd hurt me
I guess you live and learn
That when you're playin' with fire you're bound to get burned
I've been mistreated, I've been used before
I get kicked in the face still I come back for more

But I won't cry no more 'cause the tears are all in vain
We can pick up the pieces and start it all again
Let's just get back to the way it was before
Oh, girl I can't take anymore

[Chorus:]
Baby, don't treat me bad
Well, this could be the best thing that you'll ever have
Baby, don't treat me bad
(Well) you can do anything, but baby, don't treat me bad
Oh, don't treat me bad

I gave it everything, but you threw it all away
I can't take anymore of these games that you play
I've been through heartache and I've been through pain
And it's hard to believe you still treat me this way

But I won't cry no more 'cause the tears are all in vain
We can pick up the pieces and start it all again
Let's just get back to the way it was before
Oh, girl I can't take anymore

[Chorus]

Oh girl, I can't take anymore, oh yeah, now listen to me

[Chorus]

Oughta Be A Law lyrics - Firehouse

Ooo the lady in red, well she's driving me mad
Her very first offense was just looking at me
But that second glance was a felony
Oh the lady's so fine, but I think it's a crime
She's just too much for a man like me
They'd better lock her away and throw out the key

[Chorus:]
There oughta be a law
Against a girl like you
Oughta be a law
Against the things you do
Oughta be a law
For breaking hearts in two
There oughta be a law against a girl like you

Oh the lady is cool and she's breaking the rules
If only looks could kill, she'd be killing me
Guilty, murder one in the first degree
Oh the lady's unkind, she's got me doin' time
She's just too much for a man like me
They'd better lock her away and throw out the key

[Chorus]

Y'know, I'm gonna take ya downtown
Strip ya down and throw it in the slammer, baby
I'm gonna throw the book at you, girl
Stick 'em up!

[Chorus]

Lover's Lane lyrics - Firehouse

She drives me crazy, she drives me wild
But when she tries to satisfy me when I'm drivin'
We need to stop somewhere for a while
I'm gettin' ready, I feel the need for speed
Can't slow down 'til she gives me what I need

I know just the place that we can go
Hop in the back, we can be all alone
Lock the doors and hold on tight
We're gonna have a good time tonight

[Chorus:]
We're going down, down, down to Lover's Lane
That's where she drives, drives, drives me insane
I'll take her down to down to Lover's Lane
We're going down, down, down to Lover's Lane

My motor's runnin', yeah it's gettin' hot
I get overloaded, overheated, could explode
I can't believe it, we just gotta stop

I know just the place that we can go
Hop in the back, we can be all alone
Lock the doors and hold on tight
We're gonna have a good time tonight

[Chorus]

Home Is Where The Heart Is lyrics - Firehouse

Do you remember when we were only kids
Knew everyone in our neighborhood and swore that we would never forget
Well time flies and the years go by, but memories never fade
I've been gone much too long, gotta get back there someday

But my travelin' days ain't over yet
And no matter how far away
There's one thing I can't forget

[Chorus:]
Home is where the heart is
But I'm always on the run
Home is where the heart is
Though my journey's just begun
Home's where the heart is

We used to hang out through the day and party all night long
I never thought I'd go away from the place where I belong
But here I am on the road again and my love is miles away
I've been gone much too long, gotta get back there someday

But my travelin' days ain't over yet
And no matter how far away
There's one thing I can't forget

[Chorus]

No matter how far away
The one thing I can't forget

[Chorus]

Don't Walk Away lyrics - Firehouse

Girl, you and I've been together
As long as I can remember
We've come too far to throw it all away
But you tell me that you're leavin'
Oh and I just can't believe it
You know I'd do anything if only you would stay

So if you love me, then don't leave me
Don't throw it all away
Baby, I'm beggin' you please

[Chorus:]
Don't walk away
(Well) Don't leave and break my heart
(Well) It hurts because I love you and it's tearin' me apart
Never too late to say we're sorry and try another way
I'm down on my knees, I need you baby
Don't walk away

Now we've both done things that we regret
We could learn to forgive and forget
We'll make it better, give it another try
Baby, don't give up, don't give in
Walkin' away won't solve anything
There's nothin' that I wouldn't do to keep you satisfied

So if you love me, then don't leave me
Don't throw it all away
Baby, I'm beggin' you, please

[Chorus]

Overnight Sensation lyrics - Firehouse

You're headed for the spotlight, I know you can go far
You can do anything just follow your heart
Just set the wheels in motion, hold tight and stake your claim
Make sure that they will all remember your name

Can't you feel it? Comin' on, just let go
Can't you see that you're about to steal the show

[Chorus:]
(Oh) You're the overnight sensation
You can be a star
Overnight sensation
No matter who you are

The stage is ready for you, can't wait another day
There is no limit you can take it all the way
Just take your chance forever, and make your dreams come true
You know it's now or never, it's up to you

Can't you feel it? Comin' on, just let go
Can't you see that you're about to steal the show

[Chorus]

Love Of A Lifetime lyrics - Firehouse

I guess the time was right for us to say
We'd take our time and live our lives
Together day by day
We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer
We know our dreams will all come true
With love that we can share

With you I never wonder - will you be there for me?
With you I never wonder - you're the right one for me?
I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime

With every kiss, our love is like brand-new
And every star up in the sky
Was made for me and you
Still we both know that the road is long
We know that we will be together
Because our love is strong

I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime

Ooh, I finally found the love of a lifetime
A love to last my whole life through, ooh
I finally found the love of a lifetime
Forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime (I finally found the love of a lifetime)
Love of a lifetime (I finally found the love of a lifetime)
I finally found the love (I finally found the love of a lifetime)
Ooh, forever in my heart
I finally found the love of a lifetime, ooh
