Every Fire

(album: In The Vicinity Of The Heart - 1994)

I guess that it's a bit too soon
To be the life of the party
Now did I go and spoil the mood
Well, I'm sorry darling

But before you go I want to tell you
I wish that I could change the way things are
Every time I go and find a tiny spark

I say something wrong and it's easy to tell
That it's still raining in my heart
And it's been putting out every fire I try to start

Now when she left it hurt me so
I know someday I'll be alright
And I swear to you that I don't know
Why it's taking such a long time

But before you go I want to tell you
I wish that I could change the way things are
Every time I go and find a tiny spark

I say something wrong and it's easy to tell
That it's still raining in my heart
And it's been putting out every fire I try to start

I say something wrong and it's easy to tell
That it's still raining in my heart
And it's been putting out every fire I try to start
