Cocorosie - We are on Fire lyrics

rate me

A marvel light, a daze of gold

Tears of a grass widow

When I was young, I thought I’d be

more than just a fantasy

I wanna be this, I wanna be that

A big black dog with the soul of a cat

The blue-eyed doe, inside on me

He won’t leave, he’s buried deep

I used to have eyes, the colour of sky

Now I can see, in the middle of the night

I used to have eyes, the colour of sky

Now I can see, in the middle of the night

If I told you, would you believe

My soul is wicked, I’m a thief

They'd all burned me, 1690

It was a deadly night shade, which finished me

Now I’m haunting and I’m looming round

The old church yard and the damn dog pound

I'm giving some hell and I’m feeling free

Never was more than a fantasy

But I fly at night and by your candlelight

My shadow has you window

I used to have eyes, the colour of sky

Now I can see, in the middle of the night

I used to have eyes, the colour of sky

Now I can see, in the middle of the night (x2)
