Fire Lyrics

Started a fire in his dorm room

Trying to make me brownies

He started a fire

Cooks with too much heat, or I don't cook with enough

Still that night he started a fire

He started a fire in us

He makes the coffee, and I make the bed

When he wants to make me happy

He'll make it instead

It gets too hot in this house of ours

Still you'll share a blanket with me

And when it's cold I'll light a match

You, the candle, I, the wax

And when it's cold I'll light a match

You the candle, and I, the wax

Just one sleeping bag for two to sleep under

Still there's a thousand stars

To fill us with wonder

It gets too hot in this house of ours

Still you'll share a blanket with me

And when it's cold I'll light a match

You, the candle, I, the wax

And when it's cold we'll light a match

You the candle, and I, the wax

When we're old, I hope you're there

Wearing your same wrinkled shirts

When we're old, I hope you're there

You and I and our dog

And the whole wide Earth
