Afire Love
Things were all good yesterdayAnd then the devil took your memoryAnd if you fell to your death todayI hope that heaven is your resting placeI heard the doctors put your chest in painBut then that could have been the medicineAnd now you're lying in the bed againEither way I'll cry with the rest of them.
And my father told me, "Son,It's not his fault he doesn't know your face,And you're not the only one.Although my grandma used to say, that he used to sing...
Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last nightAnd we'll lie inside for a little while here ohI could look into your eyes until the sun comes upAnd we're wrapped in light, in life, in love.Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shutFor they're designed to be together ohWith your body next to mine our hearts will beat as oneAnd we're set alight, we're afire love, love, love oh.
Things were all good yesterdayThen the devil took your breath awayAnd now we're left here in the painBlack suit, black tie standin' in the rainAnd now my family is one againStapled together with the strangers and a friendCame to my mind I should paint it with a penSix years old I remember when.
My father told me, "Son,It's not his fault he doesn't know your face,And you're not the only one.Although my grandma used to say, he used to sing...
Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last nightAnd the lie inside for a little while he wroteI could look into your eyes until the sun comes upAnd we're wrapped in light, in life, in love.Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shutFor they're designed to be together ohWith your body next to mine our hearts will beat as oneAnd we're set alight, we're afire love, love, love oh
