Fires in the Wire (wersja 2)

Verse

I hear the engines warming in the dark of night

Sirens cutting through the rain

Your shadow crosses on the city lights

One last time before you take flight

The sparks are dying on the pavement floor

But I can still feel your engine roar

I'm chasing ghosts where we used to be

Trying to keep what's lost at sea

Pre-Chorus

Can I hold on to something here?

A thread that hasn't frayed yet, not this year

Is it possible for two to part

And still leave a little of the heart

Chorus

Fires in the wire, burning through the night

Every streetlight flickers with your name tonight

Hold on, hold on, don't let go just yet

I'll chase the embers till they find their way back to us yet

Verse 2

You were the current that I couldn't outrun

The one thing left that still beats in me like a drum

I'm driving through the fog where we used to glide

Still searching for the edge of where you said goodbye

The sirens fade into the rain and grey

But your voice is ringing somewhere, still in play

I'll keep the lights on long after you're gone

Hoping that somehow we won't be broken before the dawn

Pre-Chorus

Can I hold on to something here?

A thread that hasn't frayed yet, not this year

Is it possible for two to part

And still leave a little of the heart

Chorus

Fires in the wire, burning through the night

Every streetlight flickers with your name tonight

Hold on, hold on, don't let go just yet

I'll chase the embers till they find their way back to us yet

Bridge

Maybe love is not a fire that dies

But something buried deep inside

A spark that waits for winter's thaw

To rise up like it never went away at all

Chorus

Fires in the wire, burning through the night

Every streetlight flickers with your name tonight

Hold on, hold on, don't let go just yet

I'll chase the embers till they find their way back to us yet
