You Light the Fire Songtext

von Bernard Butler

You'll light the fire and I'll bring home a smile
And we'll probably be okay
Yesterday was fine but tomorrow you'll be mine
And then every day will stay the same

How long until you discover
That the man you broke won't decay?
How long until you recover
All the memories you threw away?

Take the car and drive as far as possible tonight
And promise me you'll stay away
You'll be wanting more than the love you never saw
And the motherhood you cast aside in haste

How long until you discover
All the lives you broke on your way?
How long until you recover
And the man you broke walks away?

So you'll light the fire and I'll bring home a smile
And we'll probably be okay
