Lyrics Building a Fire - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

Building a Fire

You are building a fire
You are making it bright
We are staying inside
For the rest of the night
We are humans in love
We are fluid in space
We are one and the same
And your face is my face
And your heart is my heart
And your tongue is my tongue
And your voice is the voice
That describes where I’m from
You are building a fire
And the firemen can rest
You are deft and you’re skilled
You are the very best
Yesterday was a lark
And today was a bear
Tomorrow is an octopus
You can look for me there
You can look for me there
Won’t you look for me there
