Lyrics Bright Light Fever - Roddy Hart & The Lonesome Fire

Bright Light Fever

Knocking back vodka at the funeral wake
Mourners in corners crying into the cake
This is so depressing and I wanna get out of here
Had enough of death and destruction to last a year
Take me to the place you used to tell me about
Let me know your secrets and I’ll figure you out
No point in pretending we’re as young as we used to be
You’re the only thing I’ve had that’s ever been good for me
Bright light fevr, forever
Yestrday, the fear was near and I was afraid
Long gone all the summers spent on cheap lemonade
Worried all the time, I think it’s starting to wear me down
Scared I’ll get a kicking if I’m in the wrong part of town
Can’t see what’s behind me for the ash and the dust
Life is moving fast, I guess I’ll have to adjust
Hold me close tonight, I need to know that you really care
Show what you got in all this darkness and deep despair
Bright light fever, forever
Bright light fever, forever
All this pressure is killing me
And you’re talking in your sleep
All this pressure is killing me
Pull the wreckage from the deep
Pull the wreckage from the deep
May love take me to the grave
Like a rose upon a wave
From the river to the sea
Until the blood returns to me
May love take me to the grave
Like a rose upon a wave
From the river to the sea
Until the blood returns to me
All this pressure is killing me
And you’re talking in your sleep
All this pressure is killing me
Pull the wreckage from the deep
Pull the wreckage from the deep
