Wildfire

Lyrics

[Intro]


(Gentle, syncopated acoustic guitar fingerpicking and melodic lead slides)


[Verse 1]
Another shadow slips across the floor
A silent promise knocking at the door
We keep our secrets safely tucked away
But there's a heavy price we have to pay
And no love is lost where no truth is spoken
Just another circle that we left half-broken
So save your breath and save yourself the fall
Before we lose it all

[Chorus]
Wildfire...
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Wildfire...

[Verse 2]
We walked the shoreline as the morning broke
Our heavy breathing turning into smoke
I saw the warning signs behind your eyes
No more excuses, no more sweet disguise
And the wind it blows, but you hold your head up high
As the clouds roll in to dark the summer sky

[Chorus]
Wildfire...
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Wildfire...

[Bridge]


(Guitars build in intensity, heavy strumming)
So tear up the letters! Scatter the ash!
We stood in the embers, waiting to crash!
Watch the flames climb, let it burn to the ground!
No more looking back, no more waiting around!
I could never hate you, even if I tried!
Wildfire!

[Chorus]


(With intense, raw, raspy belted vocals)
Wildfire...
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Wildfire...

[Outro]


(Music slows back down to quiet picking)
Softly embers glow...
Ooh, ooh, ooh...
Wildfire...
