Lyrics
The Fire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lie here till your world stops spinning round
Lie near me till the birds start singing out
Come, show what it is to be warm
Be my shelter and I'll be your storm
Come, lie down till the four winds cease to blow
Lie here full of rivers that you know
And I'll make your bones shake, the sweat we take from hearts still battered and worn
Be my shelter and I'll be your storm
And we'll show the fire
We'll show the fire how to burn
Yeah, we'll show the fire
We'll show the fire how to burn
I don't know, I don't know where you came from
But God's been smiling
I don't know, I don't know where the rain's gone
But it's been a while, been a while now
