Fires on my skin 2 (wersja 2)

Verse

Cigarette burn on your collarbone

I learned to love it after the fight

You said I didn't have a home

So I made this one of you and me tonight

Every year we say the same thing

That we're not doing this again

But I know that's just a line

Because the embers never go out when the room gets cold and still

Pre-Chorus

Can I keep this light from burning down?

Is it enough to hold it around

Your hand on my knee, your smile at me

A small fire in a dark place

Chorus

Fires on my skin, we're not giving in

Burning the edge off of nothing left

Fires on my skin, every scar is gold

I won't let this go even when you say it's cold

So turn up your arm and watch them spark again

Every year we say that this will be the last

But these embers never go out when we're in the dark

And I'll hold on to the light until we're through with all of this at least

Fires on my skin, fires on my skin

We don't stop until there's nothing left to give

Verse

Salt on your wrist from cooking dinner last night

I used to think that love would be a different kind of fight

You said every flame starts slow and small

And I know you're right because the ones we've had so far are still standing tall

I don't need another name to write in my heart

A fire that's burning on your skin from start to finish, never apart

So let the snow fall outside where it wants to fall

We'll dance under the porch light until the cold gets in at all

Pre-Chorus

Can I keep this light from burning down?

Is it enough to hold it around

Your hand on my knee, your smile at me

A small fire in a dark place

Chorus

Fires on my skin, we're not giving in

Burning the edge off of nothing left

Fires on my skin, every scar is gold

I won't let this go even when you say it's cold

So turn up your arm and watch them spark again

Every year we say that this will be the last

But these embers never go out when we're in the dark

And I'll hold on to the light until we're through with all of this at least

Fires on my skin, fires on my skin

We don't stop until there's nothing left to give

Bridge

I know it sounds like a lie when you say you're done

But every year you come back around

Maybe that's the point — maybe love is just a spark

That never quite goes out even in the dark

So let it keep burning, even if we don't make it through

At least I'll have this fire to carry me till then, too

Chorus

Fires on my skin, we're not giving in

Burning the edge off of nothing left

Fires on my skin, every scar is gold

I won't let this go even when you say it's cold

So turn up your arm and watch them spark again

Every year we say that this will be the last

But these embers never go out when we're in the dark

And I'll hold on to the light until we're through with all of this at least

Fires on my skin, fires on my skin

We don't stop until there's nothing left to give
