Wildfire in the Night (Version 3)

Verse 1

Red dust rising off the yard outside

Two speakers rattling on the timber pine

Your shoulder presses right against my chest

The log drum rolls and puts the talk to rest

Warm wind moving through an open door

Bare heels grinding in the concrete floor

Pre-Chorus

One spark dropping in the grass

No breath wasted on the past

Feel that shudder in the ground

No way out except the sound

Chorus

Wildfire in the night

Moving through the marrow, burning clean and bright

Wildfire in the night

Skin to skin together till the morning light

Wildfire in the night

Verse 2

Sweat runs silver down your shoulder blade

No shadow left where the kick drum played

Your fingers curl into my cotton sleeve

The bassline takes what you refuse to leave

Fingers tapping out the heavy four

Heat like an engine humming through the floor

Pre-Chorus

One spark dropping in the grass

No breath wasted on the past

Feel that shudder in the ground

No way out except the sound

Chorus

Wildfire in the night

Moving through the marrow, burning clean and bright

Wildfire in the night

Skin to skin together till the morning light

Wildfire in the night

Bridge

Let it take the breath

Let it take the pride

Nothing left to hold

Nothing left to hide

Just the timber floor

Just the living heat

Chorus

Wildfire in the night

Moving through the marrow, burning clean and bright

Wildfire in the night

Skin to skin together till the morning light

Wildfire in the night
