Let us bathe you in our heart
'cause we are fires in the night
Come on get up Romeo
Don't you know what the time is?
It's the fall of rock 'n roll,

Let us bathe you in our heart
'cause we are fires in the night
Come on get up Romeo
Don't you know what the time is?
It's the fall of rock 'n roll,

Baby, Darling, Doll Face, Honey
Now I don't mean to cause you worry
<love, i don't want to worry you>
It's only hands in my pocket
And the Queen on my money
<but i'm broke, and the government takes my money>
Did you know I've been wanting you?
so leave your locks on the latches
<did you know i want you? so leave the house door open for me>
If you bring the water, I'll bring the matches
<if you get the bathwater, i'll bring the lights>
'cause we are fires in the night
We are fires in the night
<fires meaning something that illuminates, light. so like a match, a candle, lantern
so its dark in the house, probably because they don't have enough money to pay electricity
but they don't give a fuckk. they love eachother so much
they'll take a bathe in candle light
"we" incorporates 2 or more people, in this case, a couple
and "are" is a direct comparison to something inanimate, like fire. so it could be a metaphor..
basically saying you and i are the fire that lights the night>
Let us bathe you in our heart
'cause we are fires in the night
<probably another metaphor, the couple speaking to eachother as one
but imagery like bathe and heart
sounds like a cleansing love, something like baptism
not that its a religious lyric or anything>
Come on get up Romeo
Don't you know what the time is?
<next morning. stayed in late>
It's the fall of rock 'n roll,
That's what the news said
<probably something they saw on tv, or a specific time in history
when someone thought rock and roll was dying out>
