In front of your eyes”

There's a fire shining
Day and night
It came burning through
Shine on me
Shine on down you keep me
High and dry
I'm in love with you”

“Listen here, baby
And stop acting so crazy
You say your mum ain't home,
it ain't my concern,
Just play with me and you won't get burned.
I have only one itching desire:
Let me stand next to your fire.”

my life that might have been
your face just ghostly in the smoke.
They're setting fire to the cornfields
as you're taking me home.
The smell of burning fields
will now mean you and here.”
