Lyrics--Romeo and Juliet style
Fire to Night

The daylight’s fading
And going with it is my will to keep you from my thoughts
Oh, this love's so deep that I’m past wading
It’s a battle I realize I never really fought

I could look good in your colors
Could look good with your heart on my sleeve
I catch myself driving with my left hand
Just so you can hold the other there, next to me

Oh no, the sky is wide, strung up in song
Don’t keep me waiting too long
Oh no, I know the moon is high, velvet sky
Don’t let me start dreaming tonight

[CHORUS]
Come on and turn on my world, light up this whole place
Set me to flames with that look on your face 
And we don’t have to think about the end
Make me remember what it’s like to feel alive again
Come on and take my hand and don’t let go
You make me never want to be alone

I’m nervous as I sit here, trying not to look out my window
Wondering if you’ll ever appear from the opening in the trees
You feel good next to me
And I’m so out of place without you next to me

Oh no, there’s warm breeze, slight fog
Don’t keep me waiting too long
Oh no, I know the starlight is bright, heavy on my eyes
Don’t let me start dreaming tonight

[CHORUS]

Restless, relentless
I’m pacing—a down-right mess
Come press your lips to my skin, relentless
Let your voice ring in my head so this can progress
Without you, I’m so restless

Strike a match
Strike a contrast to this night
So I can feel its warmth, your light
So I can see the glow of you, inches from me
Baby come—come on, so I can breathe
I’m running out of air here, waiting

[CHORUS]

No, we don’t have to think about the end
Make me remember what it’s like to feel alive again
Come on and take my hand and don’t let go
You make me never want to be alone

You’re the reason I never want to be alone
