Lyrics of Cat People (Putting Out Fire) by David Bowie
verse
See these eyes, so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Colder than the moon
It's been so long
verse
Feel my blood enraged
It's just the fear of loosing you
Don't you know my name?
Well, you've been so long
chorus
And I've been putting out fire
With gasoline
verse
See these eyes, so red
Red like jungle burning bright
Those who feel me near
Pull the blinds and change their minds
It's been so long
verse
Still this pulsing night
A plague I call a heartbeat
Just be still with me
You wouldn't believe what I've been through
pre-chorus
You've been so long
Well, it's been so long
chorus
And I've been putting out the fire with gasoline
Putting out the fire
With gasoline
verse
See these tears, so blue
An ageless heart that can never mend
These tears can never dry
A judgement made can never bend
verse
See these eyes, so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Just be still with me
You wouldn't believe what I've been through
pre-chorus
You've been so long
Well, it's been so long
chorus
And I've been putting out the fire with gasoline
Putting out fire
With gasoline
bridge
(Been so long)
(Been so long) well, it's been so long
(Been so long) I've been putting out fire
(Been so long) and it's been so long
(Been so long) been putting out fire
(Been so long) it's been so long
(Been so long) been putting out fire
(Been so long)
verse
Been so long (so long, so long)
Been so long (so long, so long)
Been putting out fire (been so long, so long, so long)
Been putting out fire (been so long, so long, so long)
Been so long
outro
(Been so long, so long, so long)
(Been so long, so long, so long) been putting out fire
(Been so long, so long, so long) been putting out fire
(Been so long, so long, so long) been so long
Been so long (so long, so long)
Been so long (so long, so long)
Writer(s): David Bowie, Giorgio Moroder
