Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Your mouth is a revolver
Firing bullets in the sky
Mmm
Your love is like a soldier
Loyal till you die
Mmm
[PreChorus]
And I've been looking at the stars for a long, long time
I've putting out fires all my life
Everybody wants a flame
They don't want to get burnt
And today is our turn
[Chorus]
Days like these lead to
Nights like this lead to
Love like ours
You light the spark in my bonfire heart
People like us, we don't
Need that much
Just someone that starts
Starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
[Verse 2]
This world is getting colder
Strangers passing by
Mmm
No one offers you a shoulder
No one looks you in the eye
Mmm
[PreChorus]
But I've been looking at you for a long, long time
Just trying to break through, trying to make you mine
Everybody wants a flame
They don't want to get burnt
Well, today is our turn
[Chorus]
Days like these lead to
Nights like this lead to
Love like ours
You light the spark in my bonfire heart
People like us, we don't
Need that much
Just someone that starts
Starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
[Bridge]
Mmm, our bonfire hearts
Our bonfire hearts
Oh, our bonfire hearts
Mmm, you light the spark
[Chorus]
People like us, we don't
Need that much
Just someone that starts
Starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
[Chorus]
Days like these lead to
Nights like this lead to
Love like ours
You light the spark in my bonfire heart
People like us, we don't
Need that much
Just someone that starts
Starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
Our bonfire hearts
[Chorus]
Days like these lead to
Nights like this lead to
Love like ours
You light the spark in my bonfire heart
People like us, we don't
Need that much
Just someone that starts
Starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
