Lyrics ("melt with you" portion attributed to song of the same name by Modern English) fire’s coming round the mountain, babe, start running for the car no time for family photo albums, records, or guitars freeewheelin’ dylan was my savior but I cannot return the favor i know them all by heart anyways they’ll be blowin’ in the wind after the blaze you’re the only thing that i refuse to lose even driving toward death’s door, you’re my refuge when the world stops burning, this flame will continue and i’ll melt with you smoke’s clouding up our eyes, babe, open your ears and try to hear me they may not recognize our bodies but I’ve memorized your spirit leaving life is really scary but skin and bones are temporary my love for you’s the only truth that stays it will be blowin’ in the wind after the blaze you’re the only thing that i refuse to lose even driving toward death’s door, you’re my refuge when the world stops burning, this flame will continue and i’ll melt with you red today, i’m seeing red today i’m seeing red today not in an angry way red like a cross that saves on disastrous days or a heart that loves in fantastic ways read like the cartoons when you’re searching for laughter red like a curtain that falls from the rafters at the end of a play, we all make our way off the stage and i don’t pretend to be certain but i’m pretty sure that curtain will rise again it’s just a matter of when but I’m seeing red today...
a little knievel, a little james dean
a little of your mama, a little mr. clean a little love and laughter and kindness too that’s what i think a lot about when i think of you charismatic conor kent ever since the accident i've been wondering why you came and went so quickly sometimes this world just don’t make sense it gives and takes without consent you were heaven-sent and i’m hell-bent on keeping you with me my wrinkles they were worth it every last one my dare-devil guardian angel son a little country, a little hang ten a little let loose, a little hardworking a little adventure, a little smile too that’s what i think a lot about when i think of you maybe you’ll like telling jokes maybe you’ll like reading poems maybe you’ll like something we don’t we’ll probably mess something up like misplace your best sippy cup if it gets hard enough to give up, we won’t we’re building a home for you a place you can grow into anything you want to be you will be safe with us we’ll earn your faith, your love, your trust give you our heart, net, and key maybe you’ll cheer for the bears maybe speak french, eat eclairs maybe you’ll do something brand new we’re gonna learn as you grow we’re gonna teach what we know if you wonder who loves you the most, we do i will not let you fall, never all the way down
my love, under it all, you will be safe, i will be sound life’s a tightrope, you gotta walk it a deadbolted door, we keep trying to unlock it honey, i’ll be your net if you be my key won’t you walk and unlock life with me? i will not build up my walls, never too tall for you to come in my love, inside it all, you will be safe, i will be open was it love at first sight? well it might have been
but like so many things, you don’t know what you have til it’s missing when you went away i hoped and prayed that it was not too late i’ll spend my life right by your side proving we were worth the wait i’ll be your lifelong love and your forever friend whenever life gets rough i’ve got a hand to lend i’ll be your tried and true until the very end i’ll be your lifelong love do i take your hand forever and stand right next to you it’s the easiest question i’ve ever been asked – i do every heart beat, i’m yours to keep with every promise that i make i’ll spend my life right by your side proving we were worth the wait |
