Burning Down the Dark
Sun goes down, I'm looking out the window,
any minute I know, you'll be pulling in
sleepy old town,
not much to do around here,
but at least the sky is clear,
and it's Friday night again,
oh, and I know where we're going
Take me down, down by the river,
when the moon comes out we'll be together,
where the fireflies shine like stars,
And lay me down, down on a blanket,
when my knees get weak, bodies are shaking,
And we're burning down the dark
The water's cool,
I'm shivering in your arms,
can you feel my pounding heart,
racing out of sight
Whatcha gonna do,
when the sparks fly like this,
give me just one more kiss, but make it last all night,
and before the morning light,
Take me down, down by the river,
when the moon comes out we'll be together,
where the fireflies shine like stars,
And lay me down, down on a blanket,
when my knees get weak, bodies are shaking,
And we're burning down the dark
We're burning down the dark,
oh,
Take me down, down by the river,
when the moon comes out we'll be together,
where the fireflies shine like stars,
And lay me down, down on a blanket,
when my knees get weak, bodies are shaking,
And we're burning down the dark
Take me down,
oh,
Where the fireflies shine like stars,
And lay me down,
we'll be burning,
down the dark,
yeah, we're burning down the dark
any minute I know, you'll be pulling in
sleepy old town,
not much to do around here,
but at least the sky is clear,
and it's Friday night again,
oh, and I know where we're going
Take me down, down by the river,
when the moon comes out we'll be together,
where the fireflies shine like stars,
And lay me down, down on a blanket,
when my knees get weak, bodies are shaking,
And we're burning down the dark
The water's cool,
I'm shivering in your arms,
can you feel my pounding heart,
racing out of sight
Whatcha gonna do,
when the sparks fly like this,
give me just one more kiss, but make it last all night,
and before the morning light,
Take me down, down by the river,
when the moon comes out we'll be together,
where the fireflies shine like stars,
And lay me down, down on a blanket,
when my knees get weak, bodies are shaking,
And we're burning down the dark
We're burning down the dark,
oh,
Take me down, down by the river,
when the moon comes out we'll be together,
where the fireflies shine like stars,
And lay me down, down on a blanket,
when my knees get weak, bodies are shaking,
And we're burning down the dark
Take me down,
oh,
Where the fireflies shine like stars,
And lay me down,
we'll be burning,
down the dark,
yeah, we're burning down the dark
