Old Fires Lyrics

Raised By Swans Old Fires

no shadow beneath my feet

no trace left on the ground

i used to think that our hearts could beat

the speed of sound

we’d soar past the crowd like angels

hardly visible

and back to the times we’d time to kill

darling

it’s criminal

only if i’d only kept if only to myself

starlight hide your warmth

although the wolves cry at our door

and days get older

the night is young

vanish like the moon without the sun

we stretched like a sunbeam across the sky

no end in sight

who would have thought a heart could break

the speed of light

entwined in the night like animals

hardly divisible

my shadow has not rejoined me still

darling

it’s criminal

morning without warning

cut the moorings

push me out

starlight hide your warmth

although the wolves cry at our door

and days gets older

the night is young

vanish like the moon without the sun

old fires burn young again tonight
