Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I can see you

Staring at the windows at night

But don't you fret my dear

I know just where I've been hiding out

It's safe behind this fortress

I built it just to keep the whole world out

[Verse 2]

It wasn't meant for you

Look who's left a prisoner

[Verse 3]

I know what to do when our love is on fire

I've been watching you try to b-b-b-b-burn it down

I know what to do when our world is on fire

Fire

B-b-b-b-burn it down

I know what to do when our love is on fire

I've been watching you try to b-b-b-b-burn it down

I know what to do when our world is on fire

Fire

B-b-b-b-burn it down

[Verse 4]

I can see you

Battling your demons at night

You're so restless

Wish I was a reader of mind

[Verse 5]

It's safe behind this fortress

I built it just to keep the whole world out

It wasn't meant for you

Look who's left a prisoner

[Verse 6]

I know what to do when our love is on fire

I've been watching you try to b-b-b-b-burn it down

I know what to do when our world is on fire

Fire

B-b-b-b-burn it down

[Verse 7]

I know what to do

[Verse 8]

Took my heart away left me hollow

Can we say goodbye for tomorrow

Took my heart away left me sorrow

Can we say goodbye for tomorrow

[Verse 9]

I know what to do when our love is on fire

I've been watching you try to b-b-b-b-burn it down

I know what to do when our world is on fire

Fire

B-b-b-b-burn it down

I know what to do

B-b-b-b-burn it down
