Lyrics:
you stay
silent, knowing, always in time
see how this love stays divine
see how this love stays divine
you stay
silent, knowing, always in time
see how this love stays divine
see how this love stays divine
sleep here
hoping, knowing, always in time
see how this love stays divine
see how this love stays divine
and i'm waiting when i return to her i find
and i'm waiting flowers of evil in my mind
and i'm waiting dancing with fire on the edge
and i'm waiting remembering all of what she said
and i'm waiting hoping the rains will wash away
and i'm waiting hoping a guide will show the way
and i'm waiting dancing with fire on the edge
and i'm waiting remembering all of what she said
with this fire in the head...
sleep here
hoping, knowing, always in time
see how this love stays divine
see how this love stays divine
this is the way, step inside...

Hope this is of some help :)

Fire in the Head by The Tea Party
As Heard on: The Edges of Twilight
EMI Canada, 1995
This is the author's interpretation.
I must give credit where it's due. The tuning is directly from the Tea
Party's Official Web Site, so you know it is authentic and also that
I didn't figure it out myself! Anyways, I also have to give credit
to Paul Stipack, although he has never talked to me, his tab for this
song is the basis for my interpretation.
Tuning (low to high): DADF#AD
