Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Normally, I don't cross the line like this
I hope I'm not coming off self-righteous
You only met me tonight
Feel free to stop me anytime
[Verse 2]
But if it was me, I'd put your heart on a mantle
Protect you from what you're not strong enough to handle
I'll never leave till the tears are dry
I'm there for you tonight and every other night 'cause
[Verse 3]
Baby, I know, that love's just a pattern of ups and downs
You need someone who wants to keep you safe and sound
Someone who won't get tired, through the rain and fire
Baby, I know, that I won't ever give the runaround
I'll be the one who's always gonna stand around
Promise, I won't get tired through the rain and fire
[Verse 4]
Normally, I wouldn't carry on with you
But she's nowhere to be found in the picture
I see the sad in your eyes
Feel free to stop me anytime
[Verse 5]
But if it was me, I'd hold you heart in a glass case
Instead she got you feeling like you're in last place
Let me stay till the tears are dry
I'm here for you tonight and every other night 'cause
[Verse 6]
Baby, I know, love's just a pattern of ups and downs
You need someone who wants to keep you safe and sound
Someone who won't get tired, through the rain and fire
Baby, I know, that I won't ever give the runaround
I'll be the one who's always gonna stand around
Promise, I won't get tired, through the rain and fire
Through the rain and fire
[Verse 7]
It's amazing how I can look in your eyes
And tell that you haven't been satisfied for a long time
If she just can't deliver, I can do it better
Let me summarize
It's amazing that we only met tonight
And I don't mean to bother
But you seem like an angel
That's longing to be freed tonight
I'll be your alibi
[Verse 8]
Baby, I know, love's just a pattern of ups and downs
You need someone who wants to keep you safe and sound
Someone who won't get tired, through the rain and fire
Baby, I know, that I won't ever give the runaround
I'll be the one who's always gonna stand around
Promise, I won't get tired through the rain and fire
[Verse 9]
(Rain and fire) Through the rain and fire
(Rain and fire)
(Rain and fire)
