Lyrics Set It on Fire - Dana Fuchs

Set It on Fire

Engine’s warm — it’s time to go
The morning sun leaves me cold
Leaves you standing there
Another heart waits back home
Another song that I haven’t sung for so long
Is the melody gone?
We set it all up — to set it on fire
Set it on a stage with a burning desire
Set it on a lie — bettin' on a life — set it on fire
Set it on fire
A lonely ride above the sea
Surrounded by all the memories
Of that tender night
I couldn’t stay but you wouldn’t leave
One more kiss meant one more to grieve
So I said goodbye
Then I watched you cry
We set it all up — to set it on fire
Set it on a stage with a burning desire
Set it on a lie — bettin' on a life — set it on fire
Set it on fire
Now I’ve been wondering every day back home
If you might be missing me
And even though I told you to leave me alone
I wanna put my heart back on my sleeve
We set it all up — to set it on fire
Set it on a stage with a burning desire
Set it on a lie — bettin' on a life — set it on fire
Set it on fire
