White Hot Lyrics - Anthology 1980-1987 - Tom Cochrane

Waiting by the shoreline 

In Somalia for your reply 

I need you to come see me 

That's no lie 

The guns are getting closer 

The sweat pours like dew 

That fell from the trees in Tripoli 

In the spring 

I'm white hot 

I can't take it anymore 

I'm white hot 

By the Somalian shore 

White hot 

Yes I'm burning to the core 

I need rain

Cast out from the jungle 

With no rations or canteen 

For selling faulty rifles 

To the thieves in Tanzania 

Adventures and misfortune 

Nothing wagered, nothing gained 

I have wandered through the desert 

Found the ocean not the rain 

I can remember the nights by the strand in Tripoli 

We were so much cooler then 

I had you and my poetry to protect me 

We were so much younger then 

I need rain 

I'm white hot 

I can't take it anymore 

I'm white hot 

By the Somalian shore

I'm white hot 

Yes I'm burning to the core 

I need rain, I need rain, I need rain 

I can remember the nights by the sea in Tripoli 

We were so much colder then 

I had you and my poetry to protect me 

We were both soldiers then 

Bolder then, colder then 

I need rain, I need rain, I need rain 

White hot 

White hot...
