Sara Bareilles - Orpheus / Fire (Live from the Hollywood Bowl) lyrics
[Sara Bareilles - Orpheus / Fire Live from the Hollywood Bowl lyrics]
Don't stop
Trying to find me here amidst the chaos
Though I know it’s blinding
There's a way out say out loud
Will not give up on love now no fear
Don't you turn like Orpheus, just stay here
Hold me in the dark and when the day appears
We’ll say we did not give up on love today
Door clicks while his wheels start
Spinning on the pavement
I go fill the space up
Where he has been staying
Won't lose much sleep
He never went that deep
"Love you, " oh, you sweet thing, no
I never said that let me hold your ego while
You get your bag packed
Don't take this the wrong way
But when the spade shows up
I call it by it's first name
We were, we were never gonna catch fire
We'd've burned up in the flames
Long before they ever rose up higher
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold
But, I do now, so I'll know
What it feels like when I feel fire, fire
(Fire, Fire)
Talk, touch, kiss
Then this one's just like all the others
And I know all too well
That I want deeper waters
I held my breath to swim
But shallow shores aren’t safe
Enough to dive in
We were, we were never gonna catch fire
We’d've burned up in the flames
Long before they ever rose up higher
Someday, I, I won’t have to feel the cold
But, I do now, so I'll know
What it feels like when I feel fire, fire
That comes-and-stays fire
On-blood-and-veins fire
I've only ever wanted fire
In my chest, in my mouth, on my tongue
In my mind
In my soul, so my lungs can breathe in fire
We'd’ve burned up in the flames
Long before they ever rose up higher
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold
I do now, so I'll know
What it feels like when I feel fire, fire
Fire, fire
Hello, Los Angeles
Trying to find me here amidst the chaos
Though I know it’s blinding
There's a way out say out loud
Will not give up on love now no fear
Don't you turn like Orpheus, just stay here
Hold me in the dark and when the day appears
We’ll say we did not give up on love today
Door clicks while his wheels start
Spinning on the pavement
I go fill the space up
Where he has been staying
Won't lose much sleep
He never went that deep
"Love you, " oh, you sweet thing, no
I never said that let me hold your ego while
You get your bag packed
Don't take this the wrong way
But when the spade shows up
I call it by it's first name
We were, we were never gonna catch fire
We'd've burned up in the flames
Long before they ever rose up higher
Someday, I, I won't have to feel the cold
But, I do now, so I'll know
What it feels like when I feel fire, fire
(Fire, Fire)
Talk, touch, kiss
Then this one's just like all the others
And I know all too well
That I want deeper waters
I held my breath to swim
But shallow shores aren’t safe

What it feels like when I feel fire, fire
Fire, fire
