and january goes past... but all is fine. and the thoughts in my head are mine alone for a moment until i'm ready to speak... but until then... "IN EACH FIRE"
Must’ve been the desert...
Coz I have never seen it before...
But the fire lit up the whole damn sky...
And you would have had to have been blind not to know for sure...
smoke signals caught you...
And we watched the fire eclipse the city lights...
Here, in your car next to you...
And I love you more than ever, and I’m sorry I can no longer fight...
I know that...
In each fire we find
another reason to spend our time...
And all over heaven we climb...
Looking for things like we left behind..
And maybe god can tell us why...
Maybe god can tell us why...
500 miles across the desert floor
and we’re still not anywhere...
Radio on... and nobody’s talking
And the dust is flying... proof that we were there....
It’s hard to know what is right
when you’re crying this hard...
I close my eyes and I am still running
away from your car...
But I know... (chorus)
And now
ashes... oh, ashes....
Baby, I guess that now...
We can finally fall down....
(Chorus)
500 miles across the desert floor
and we still ain’t anywhere...
