lyrics

Oh the birds are flying home I saw them crying on their wings tonight
And the leaves are shrivelling in they'll soon capitulate and then they'll die
And the skies are bedding in they'll put a lid on things that need to soar
Let the breeze undress the trees 'til we've forgotten how they looked before

Maybe there's a way to stop this fire from burning out
Maybe there's a way to keep some sunlight in our house

Oh well nature spoke to me she promised frosty nights and cool blue days
And a sky that's crisp and clear and a sun that cuts through morning haze
But now we're trudging through the mud and dirt and death and sludge and endless grey
I know nature is a liar I don't believe a single word she says

Maybe there's a way to stop this fire from burning out
Maybe there's a way to keep some sunlight in our house
'til the nights draw out
'til the world rolls round
I want you in my house

So let's pile up the coal we'll light the stove we'll soon be settling in
'til the birds are coming home and we'll be kicking off our shoes again

Maybe there's a way to stop this fire from burning out
Maybe there's a way to keep some sunlight in our house
'til the nights draw out
'til the world rolls round
I want you in my house
