Love Set Fire Lyrics

Love Set Fire lyrics

(Murray on lead)

Small paper cranes

and wallpaper stains

that
the pictures can hardly conceal



Love letters bent

from tears
that were spent

on a cruel and a shabby ideal



But love set
fire

to everything

and the flames looked like

angel's
wings.



We played our parts

with paper hearts

and love
set fire

to everything.



I know that it's wrong

to stay
here this long

haunted by all of her things



I found out too
late

only fools feel safe

in a house made of jokers and kings



But love set fire

to everything

and the flames looked
like

angel's wings.



We played our parts

with paper
hearts

(All)

and love set fire

to everything.



(accordion and string solo)



(Murray)

I've tried to escape
her

and these bits of paper

but the memories I just can't outrun



So I'll keep lighting matches

and when one of them catches

this thing will finally

be done



(All)

Love set
fire

to everything

and the flames looked like

angel's
wings.



We played our parts

with paper hearts

and love
set fire

to everything.
