Fire At Midnight lyrics

Song information

Artist: Jethro Tull
Album: The Jethro Tull Christmas Album

Lyrics

I believe in fires at midnight ---
When the dogs have all been fed
A golden toddy on the mantle ---
A broken gun beneath the bed
Silken mist outside the window
Frogs and newts slip in the dark ---
Too much hurry ruins the body
I'll sit easy ... fan the spark
Kindled by the dying embers of another working day
Go upstairs ... take off your makeup ---
Fold your clothes neatly away
Me, I'll sit and write this love song
As I all too seldom do ---
Build a little fire this midnight
It's good to be back home with you
