Lyrics to Fire



My angel I promised her we'd be dressed in a cloud

Standing on pillars on fire singing out loud

Shot from truth and love, not darkness

With the moon under your feet

Where birth goes on and rides terror

My shine will be complete



With your fire your fire

My tremolo

You're my fire



Ever so softly it grows when you don't wear your armor

Crushing the burden and confusion sour

Trembling high on every leaf

Raining light down on your belief

Oh my angel unburdened by the race

I'll go down burning in your embrace



On fire, on fire

My tremolo

You're my fire



Don't take away my shine

My shine is all I have

My heat, my love, my beauty and my glad

It worries me sometimes that I want love

And live a life of sad



My tremolo

Sweet baby, my fire

My desire, fire
