Patti Smith - Fire of Unknown Origin Lyrics

A fire of unknown origin took my baby away. Fire of unknown origin took my baby away. Swept her up and off my wavelength. Swallowed her up like the ocean in a fire thick and gray. Death comes sweeping thru the hallway like a ladies’ dress. Death comes riding down the hallway in it’s sunday best. Death comes driving; death comes creeping; death comes I can’t do nothing. Death goes, there must be something that remains. Death, it made me sick and crazy ’cause that fire took my baby away. Patti Smith Lyrics Fire of Unknown Origin Lyrics
