Where's the Fire?

Just before you left the club
And he walked you to your door
Did you for one moment think
You've been waiting for something more

You don't want to be alone
Just because you've loved and lost
But for once your sister was right
That the good things in life are free
Nothing if it ain't free, yeah
So you met a man
But you could do better and

The sun don't mind
And the sidewalks don't mind
And the landlord says next week'll be fine

In the morning eggs and toast
Then of course it's back to bed
When you can't profess your love
Then there's nothing much to be said

Still his words were rather cold
You don't deserve any of that
They may you then broke the mould
And in a Western movie he'd wear a black hat
And in Scorsese he'd be a subway rat
Oh I know it's hard to meet a man
But honey, why hurry when

The sun don't mind
And the sidewalks don't mind
And the cricket under the stove's
Still gonna buzz anyway
Well your mother might mind
And your father thinks men must be blind
But your friends know what you want
And they say, "Hey...

Where's the fire?
Take your time
