From the recording Wanting's For Sinners
This was the first song I wrote with Jeff Dalrymple. He sent me the music and I immediately found the words to it. It was magical.
Lyrics
Meet me on the wall
Don’t say words or write letters to the others
We’ll walk into the falls and
Watch the fire burn
Watch the fire burn.
Sirens fill the distance and skipping our stones
All breaking the silence that only deep water knows
We watch the fire burn
Watch the fire burn.
Shadows fall underneath the water
Catch the flashing lights falling from the sky
If the rapture comes tonight
You and I will dance through the fire
We’ll burn up the night.
I’ll wear your favorite shoes and the dress from your mother
Red of silk and fire
Wait for lightning strikes
We’ll burn up the night.
We’ll decorate the moon with candles and a song
With cigarettes we’ll lie
beneath our covered eyes
We’ll feel the fire burn
We’ll feel the fire.
Shadows fall underneath the water
Catch the flashing lights falling from the sky
If the rapture comes tonight
You and I will dance into the fire
We’ll burn up the night.
