This Fire

Lori McKenna

2

Well I thought he'd love me forever

How forever is easily said

Oh how love is like liquid

Liquid over my head

All I wanted was to love him

So I gave him my heart

First thing I learned about love is

Things break when you tear them apart

Will you love me when I'm angry?

Will you bring me my spirit when my soul is dry?

Will you give me your forever?

Will you lay down in this fire?

So my dear are you lonely

Or are you just the lonely type?

The ones who cry with their lovers

The kind who love out of spite?

Will you love me when I'm angry?

Will you bring me my spirit when my soul is dry?

Will you swallow all my wishes?

Will you lay down in this fire?

Will you lay down in this fire?

I'm not going to ever take away

From the person you're trying to be

So you can stay right there inside yourself

I know everybody wants to be free

Well on the night my lover left me

I did not beg his stay

Watched a paper bag trying to jump a chain link fence

And I knew he was just blowing away

Will you love me when I'm angry?

Will you bring me my spirit when my soul is dry?

Will you give me your forever?

Will you lay down in this fire?

Will you love me when I'm angry?

Will you bring me my spirit when my soul is dry?

Will you harbor all my vengeance?

Will you lay down in this fire?

Will you lay down in this fire?

Will you lay down in this fire?
