about
James Mackenzie: HEART'S ON FIRE
lyrics
IF EVERY RIVER FLOWS IT'S ON WAY
IF EVERY HILL GOES DOWN
IF EVERY HEARTBREAK HAS A STORY
I DON'T THINK THAT MINE IS DONE
THEY SAY A KING CAN FEEL ISOLATED
AND QUESTION ALL HE KNOWS
I'VE TRAVELLED HERE JUST TO SEE YOU
FOR A MOMENT I CAN FEEL AT HOME
AS TIME GOES BY
I ASK MYSELF WHY
IT'S ALL FOR YOU
JUST LOOK ME IN THE EYES
MAYBE YOU CAN TELL ME
IF I WEAR MY CROWN
WILL I BE ALONE
WOULD IT MAKE A SOUND
IF I FALL FROM MY THRONE
WOULD YOU STAY BY MY SIDE
WHEN THE DAY IS DONE
BABY MY HEART'S ON FIRE
UNTIL THE WAR IS WON
THE CITY LIGHTS THEY SEEM SO BRIGHT
THEY SHINE ON JUST FOR YOU
THE DOOR IS OPEN
WON'T YOU COME IN
AND SHOW ME WHAT YOU WANT TO DO
AS TIME GOES BY
I ASK MYSELF WHY
IT'S ALL FOR YOU
JUST LOOK ME IN THE EYES MAYBE YOU CAN TELL ME
IF I WEAR MY CROWN
WILL I BE ALONE
WOULD IT MAKE A SOUND
IF I FALL FROM MY THRONE
WOULD YOU STAY BY MY SIDE
WHEN THE DAY IS DONE
BABY MY HEART'S ON FIRE
UNTIL THE WAR IS WON
IF EVERY HILL GOES DOWN
IF EVERY HEARTBREAK HAS A STORY
I DON'T THINK THAT MINE IS DONE
THEY SAY A KING CAN FEEL ISOLATED
AND QUESTION ALL HE KNOWS
I'VE TRAVELLED HERE JUST TO SEE YOU
FOR A MOMENT I CAN FEEL AT HOME
AS TIME GOES BY
I ASK MYSELF WHY
IT'S ALL FOR YOU
JUST LOOK ME IN THE EYES
MAYBE YOU CAN TELL ME
IF I WEAR MY CROWN
WILL I BE ALONE
WOULD IT MAKE A SOUND
IF I FALL FROM MY THRONE
WOULD YOU STAY BY MY SIDE
WHEN THE DAY IS DONE
BABY MY HEART'S ON FIRE
UNTIL THE WAR IS WON
THE CITY LIGHTS THEY SEEM SO BRIGHT
THEY SHINE ON JUST FOR YOU
THE DOOR IS OPEN
WON'T YOU COME IN
AND SHOW ME WHAT YOU WANT TO DO
AS TIME GOES BY
I ASK MYSELF WHY
IT'S ALL FOR YOU
JUST LOOK ME IN THE EYES MAYBE YOU CAN TELL ME
IF I WEAR MY CROWN
WILL I BE ALONE
WOULD IT MAKE A SOUND
IF I FALL FROM MY THRONE
WOULD YOU STAY BY MY SIDE
WHEN THE DAY IS DONE
BABY MY HEART'S ON FIRE
UNTIL THE WAR IS WON
