    I’m a firefighter lyrics

    Baby I’m a firefighter trapped in a burning house in a silent picture
    & there is no way out except to watch the love between us die

    That’s called the Falling Angel
    It’s an amusement park ride
    Some sort of rollercoaster
    It takes you up & when it brings you down it gives you butterflies

    & now I’m longing for your kiss
    Bet you could read it on my lips

    Waterfalls I’m jumping down

    I know you’re leaving baby
    The birds are flying south
    & there’s nothing to say
    I need you here
    I need your love inside of mine like I could die
