        Hart wrote and recorded the songs for Fire on the Floor before the songs for her previous album Better Than Home was mixed. Hart recorded with some musicians she had not performed with before, such as Michael Landau and Waddy Wachtel on electric guitar, and they recorded sixteen songs in three days, although the mixing took much longer.

        The album was Produced by Oliver Leiber and recorded by Niko Bolas. It debuted at Nº 1 on the Billboard Blues Albums Chart, becoming her sixth number one album overall.

Love is a lie
Sucking you dry
Love's not a friend
Until the end
 
You can call it a game
You can choose your own name
When it's stuck in the vein
There's no greater pain
 
I've got a bell but no sound
I've got a horse, but no hound
And I know why, know why
 
Love is a lie
Love is a lie
Love is a lie
And I know I'm going down
 
Now there was a time
Love was blowing my mind
Not a tear, not a doubt
'Til I figured it out
 
Now I'm madder than hell
Love is wagging its tail
I holler, I cry
Love is a lie
 
I've got a bell with no ring
I've got a whip, but no spank
And I know why, know why...
 
Love is a lie
Love is a lie
Love is a lie
And I know I'm going...
You can call it a game
But there's no greater pain
When it's stuck in the vein
I know I'm going down
 
I've got a bell, but no sound
I've got a horse, but no hound
And I know why, know why I'm going down.

I've been in love so many times
Thought I knew the score
But now you've treated me so wrong
I can't take anymore
 
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again
Fall in love, I'm never gonna fall in love
I mean it, gonna fall in love
I mean it, fall in love again
 
All those things I heard about you
I thought they were only lies
But when I caught you in his arms, babe
I just broke down and cried
 
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again
Fall in love, no, I'm never gonna fall in love
I mean it, fall in love again.
 
I gave my heart so easily
I cast aside my pride
But when you fell for someone else, baby
I broke up all inside
 
And it looks like
I'm never gonna fall in love again
That's why I'm singin'
Fall in love
No, I'm never gonna fall in love
Please don't make me fall in love again.

The sun's still warm and most days are good
The world still turns like you said it would
But this pain seems to never let me go
And there is really no movin' on
There's only going along
 
And I will always be
Better for you loving me
Better for the times we shared
That travel with me everywhere
 
And I will always try
To hold my head up to the sky
If only just to let you know
That straight from my heart
I still miss you so
 
If I could I would gladly trade
A thousand tomorrows for one yesterday
There are so many things that I would say
You're a part of every memory
That lives on in me.

       Salvatore Adamo, né le 1er novembre 1943 à Comiso en Sicile(Italie), est un chanteur et auteur-compositeur italo-belge.
      Il acquiert la nationalité belge lors de sa naturalisation au début de l'année 2019.
          Salvatore est le fils de Concetta et Antonino Adamo. En 1947, son père part travailler em Belgique dans les mines, accompagné de sa famille qui s'installe à Jemappes(Mons). Entre 1950 et 1960, la famille Adamo s’agrandit de sept enfants. À l'âge de 13 ans, le jeune Salvatore est victime d'une méningite qui le contraint à vivre une longue hospitalisation à Louvain. Son père quitte aussitôt son emploi de mineur et la famille s'installe alors à Bruxelles. Dix mois plus tard, enfin guéri, Salvatore reprend sa scolarité, et suit ensuite ses études de mathématiques, avant d'entrer à la faculté afin de devenir journaliste.

Quand les roses fleurissaient, sortaient les filles
On voyait dans tous les jardins danser les jupons
Puis les roses se fanaient, rentraient les filles
Pour passer dans leur doux écrin le temps des flocons
 
C'était charmant
C'était charmant
C'était charmant, le temps des roses
Quand on y pense, paupières closes
 
Mais les roses d'aujourd'hui sont artificielles
Et les filles vont cueillir des fleurs, été comme hiver
Elles ne supportent plus l'ennui, ces demoiselles
Elles se griment le corps et le cœur et vont prendre l'air.
