Orpheus / Fire (Live from the Hollywood Bowl)

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 day appears
We'll say
We did not give up on love today

Door clicks while his wheels start spinning on the pavement
And I go fill the space up where he has been stayin'
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 its 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, bend, this one's just like all the others
And I know all too well that I won't beat the waters
I held my breath to swim
The 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
But I do now, so I'll know
What it feels like when I feel fire, fire, fire
Fire

Hello Los Angeles!
