Firebird in My Chest 2 (Version 2)

Verse 1

Fading light on the horizon line

You were laughing at a sun we'd never find

I stood there in the fire of your eyes

Every goodbye felt like a thousand lifetimes

Pre-Chorus

Now I'm standing here alone again

Learning how to let go, learning how to begin

Maybe this time it's not an end at all

Maybe it's just a door that we never opened in the fall

Chorus

I still feel your heart beating in my chest

Like a firebird taking flight from the rest

Every shadow on your wall keeps glowing bright

Firebird in my chest, burning through the night

Verse 2

Your smile came back to me in every crowded room

I heard you whisper secrets that only summer's allowed

We used to dance under stars so low they'd touch the sea

But now it feels like the whole sky is turning over for me

Pre-Chorus

Now I'm standing here alone again

Learning how to let go, learning how to begin

Maybe this time it's not an end at all

Maybe it's just a door that we never opened in the fall

Chorus

I still feel your heart beating in my chest

Like a firebird taking flight from the rest

Every shadow on your wall keeps glowing bright

Firebird in my chest, burning through the night

Bridge

What if every goodbye was just a start?

Not an end to something beautiful from afar?

Maybe love is just a spark that never fades away

Maybe you're still standing there beside me now and today

Chorus

I still feel your heart beating in my chest

Like a firebird taking flight from the rest

Every shadow on your wall keeps glowing bright

Firebird in my chest, burning through the night
