civil twilight - church on fire lyrics
church on fire
two by two, they came into that sunlit room
the only church in this town
the only town that i ever knew
i sat in the back row, next to the open door
so i could feel the breeze on my skin
and know that there’s something more than just this
i saw her walking down bellmont avenue
and from the back window of my father’s car
you waved at me and i waved at you
we kissed after years of waiting
years of holding hands
and i felt something shift inside my soul
that no man could understand
i burn like a church on fire
in the light of the afternoon
i hope you can feel my desire
’cause these flames rise for you
one by one, i went through all the things i’ve done
to get to this place i stand
where i look down and i don’t recognize my own hands
i wrote you a letter for every day that i was away
but how many words does one man need to say what he needs to say
i burn like a church on fire
in the light of the afternoon
i hope you can feel my desire
’cause these flames rise for you
yeah, that was me
i poured the gasoline
i lit the match for everyone to see
the fireworks in my heart
yeah, that was me
i burned it to the ground
yeah, that was me
i burned it all down
i burned this to the ground
everything that has let us down
everything that has let us down
one by one, i went through all the things i’ve done
