Description
A Tinderbox is really just small container that contains flint and other stuff used to set a fire. And I think, after knowing this, it’s a great metaphor for affairs of the heart. The human heart isn’t really that large, about the size of a fist. But in all of history, perhaps nothing has been responsible for more “fires” than this small organ that beats inside the chest of every human being.
Lyrics
Tinderbox We're a Tinderbox baby this love is too hot... Darlin I know we shouldn't be together The world would hang us to dry But on the other hand when ever we're together I don't care I'm livin' a lie We're playin' in the wind with a pocket full of matches Back behind the church where the preacher won't catch us Whoooaah, yeah yeah We're a tinderbox baby this love is too hot We go from a spark to a flame We better jump together in a river full of ice Till there ain't no one for to blame We're a tinderbox baby the kindlin's so tight We're never gonna make it through this long hot night We're a tinderbox baby but I love it when we go boom Let's get a room Got a reservation name a Jane and John Doe Three hour special romm three-oh-oh King sized bed and a heart shaped tub Little bit a whiskey and a whole lot of love Yeah yeah We're a tinderbox baby this love is too hot We go from a spark to a flame We better jump together in a river full of ice Till there ain't no one for to blame We're a tinderbox baby the kindlin's so tight We're never gonna make it through this long hot night We're a tinderbox baby but I love it when we go boom I know we're gonna pay the piper for our sorry sordid deeds But don't go I gotta feel the fire cause right now you're all I need We're a tinderbox baby this love is too hot We go from a spark to a flame We better jump together in a river full of ice Till there ain't no one for to blame We're a tinderbox baby the kindlin's so tight We're never gonna make it through this long hot night We're a tinderbox baby but I love it when we go boom When we go boom We go boom, we go boom, we go boom...
