Fires in the Fjords (versie 3)

Verse

Cabin windows catch the red light of the fjord below

Your hand still warm from holding mine through January's snow

The fireplace is crackling soft like it knows we're done

I'm folding up your scarf and counting how many summers come

There was a night we drove too fast down this road without a map

Stars so close I thought they'd fall and land on my lap

Pre-Chorus

So maybe goodbye's just a door we open wide

Maybe breaking up is just the ending of one tide

Chorus

I'm letting go like a wildfire in the winter sky

Every piece that's burning feels alive tonight

We were gold that summer, wild and we could fly

Even when it's over I still feel it in my eyes

Verse 2

Your note said Oslo, but I know you'll be here too

Somewhere past the mountains where the water turns to blue

I keep your sweater in the trunk like a map to me

Every mile I drive is one more chance for freedom

The fjords at dawn are something only this can show

That endings are just chapters we don't need to let go of yet

Pre-Chorus

So maybe goodbye's just a door we open wide

Maybe breaking up is just the ending of one tide

Chorus

I'm letting go like a wildfire in the winter sky

Every piece that's burning feels alive tonight

We were gold that summer, wild and we could fly

Even when it's over I still feel it in my eyes

Bridge

Maybe this is how we learn to love again

Not the ending but the fire in between

No goodbyes, just a mountain turning gray

A door opening wider than I ever thought it would today

Chorus

I'm letting go like a wildfire in the winter sky

Every piece that's burning feels alive tonight

We were gold that summer, wild and we could fly

Even when it's over I still feel it in my eyes
