Fires in the Dark 4

Intro

I'll stay a little longer

The night air hums my ribs

Verse

A single beam cuts through the blinds like a wire

It lands on your hair where it's curled with fire

Two of us in this room, both burning slow

Every hour makes me want to hold you closer so

Pre-Chorus

We don't need lights if we've got each other's eyes

So let the whole world darken down outside

I'm not ready for tomorrow yet

Let tonight keep spinning us around our heads

Chorus

Fires in the dark, fires in your chest

Keep me warm until they kick the rest

Nothing to say but the way it feels right now

Fires in the dark, I don't want out

Verse

Curtains rustling like a secret we're keeping

Shadows dance along your collarbone and creeping

Every floor creaks below us like a drum beat slow

I'm trying not to count how many hours left to go

Pre-Chorus

We don't need lights if we've got each other's eyes

So let the whole world darken down outside

I'm not ready for tomorrow yet

Let tonight keep spinning us around our heads

Chorus

Fires in the dark, fires in your chest

Keep me warm until they kick the rest

Nothing to say but the way it feels right now

Fires in the dark, I don't want out

Bridge

No clock is ticking hard as this heartbeat of mine

Let's burn all the hours till we're both lost in time

Hold your hand through every single dying ray

We'll keep this light on and drive the night away

Chorus

Fires in the dark, fires in your chest

Keep me warm until they kick the rest

Nothing to say but the way it feels right now

Fires in the dark, I don't want out

Outro

Lights come up slow, you pull on my sleeve

Tell me this is just where we're supposed to be
