I'm on fire
Nothing's gonna hold me back
Unless the sky has a pocketful of tricks to try

Oh you pick a colour and I sing it for you
I know you feel the same way
Say say
Say you feel the same way

Your fingertips are like a superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come
I think it must be heaven
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand

I'm on fire golden echoes upon my face
Tell those dreamers
They can dream up nothing like this place

Oh you pick a colour and I sing it for you
I know you feel the same way
Say say, say you feel the same way

Your fingertips are like a superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come
I think it must be heaven
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand

Just one day like this will keep me going on
Tender kisses will keep me going on
Ooooh

Your fingertips are like a superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come
I think it must be heaven
Burnin the sun with just a wave of your hand

Seems like hell has broken loose
It couldn't be more beautiful
I just want to burn the sun with you
.......
Greatest minds in all of power
I just want to burn the sun with you
With just a wave of your hand

. . .


I never really know who you are
You could be a ghost for all I know
whenever you're home
Picking up pieces of my heart
Like leaves that have fallen on our garden path

Who's gonna fly your plane
When you need to make your getaway?

But I'm still holding on
Calling you back home, calling you back

I never really know who you are
You could be a ghost for all I know
whenever you're home
Used to be closer to my skin
Turned a blind eye to the odds and I bet everything

Who's gonna fly your plane
When you need to make your getaway?

But I'm still holding on
Calling you back home, calling you back

You hear my flesh and my bones
They're calling you back home, calling you back

This house lives in silence for most of the year
You're a million miles away but you couldn't be nearer
Please break my heart just so I can feel
At least I would have something I could believe

But I'm still holding on
Calling you back home, calling you back
You hear my flesh and my bones
They're calling you back home, calling you back

OH OH OH

. . .


I waded through the darkest fields you'd imagine
Your pretty face sketched on the barrel of my gun
And I know you'll be the first to welcome me
When I climb into eternity
Oh, oh

The forest always kept us warm
But it doesn't feel like home anymore
And I know there's bigger mountains where you are
And a better climate for my heart
Oh, oh

Chorus:
I've been racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am ready for my final symphony
Oh my body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms

Though many battles I have won
I lost too many friends I could count on
And I know, they'll be the first to welcome me
When I parachute into eternity
Oh, oh

Chorus

And the rain beat down on the rooftops
But there was no sound
There was no sound
And all my friends and family carried me
They carried me home
Carried me home

Chorus 2x

. . .


Don't hold your breath cause we're running in circles
Silence runs along phone lines
I feel like I am swimming through pavements
And then the dark throws me a lifeline

Chorus:
I'll be the sky that lights up with fireworks
Whenever Novembers comes
And you could be the greatest thing that has happened to me
Though I don't know you now

Don't hold your breath
cause we've already been here
There are trees to remember you by
Those treese are cold but they're anticipating
The sun is gonna give the kiss of life

Chorus

I'm blowing breath on the windowpane
Sketching your name with my finger
I'm blowing breath on the windowpane
Sketching your face with my finger

Chorus 2x

. . .


Mother do you still love this child?
Baby on the run
Father would you forgive me now?
When you see what I have become

Love come rescue
Love come rescue

There's a swallow on the phone wire
Singing songs unto my pain
Songs I will remember
To lift me up again

Love come rescue
Love come rescue
Love come rescue
Love come rescue

. . .


I was lost oh no
And my heart beat with the stereo
As the sun rose in your eyes
You shot a look that killed me

Can you work it out for yourself?
I couldn't work it out for myself

Chorus:
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
I'll be there to take your hurt
Even if I come off worse
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
I'll be there to take your hurt
Even if I come off worse

I was lost for words
Lost inside your dream world

Can you work it out for yourself?
I couldn't work it out for myself oh no

Chorus 2x

. . .


Let your world be wide open
And your fears be blown apart
May your voice be louder than bombs
Somewhere in silence find one to trust

Chorus:
Lift your head up
Untie the knot
My little sunshine
Hope is neven light-years away

Let your senses be ignited
By streams of neon singing in the dark
Connected to the planet
A million neighbours
A sea of stars

Chorus

Leaders, lovers come and go
Outside forces you can't control
Oh I see you smiling at the unknown
Oh I see you smiling at the unknown

Chorus 2x

. . .


My heart is a stone
You don't want to go there
But I don't mind if you try

If you should go
I'll be a soldier
But I can't fight without you

And outside love moves on
To an imaginary world
Where we both belong
In an imaginary world

My heart is a stone
You don't want to go there
But I don't mind if you try

We studied the cold
Yeah we made friends with it
And it brought us back
Our bodies intact

And no one knows how I love you
No one comes even close
And sunlight runs through my veins for you

And outside love moves on
To an imaginary world
Where we both belong
In an imaginary world

And no one knows how I love you
No one comes even close
And sunlight runs through my veins for you
And no one knows how I love you

And no one knows how I love you
No one comes even close
And sunlight runs through my veins for you
And no one knows how I love you

I put my hands up
'Cause this is so obvious
That look in your eye
Of an awkward goodbye

. . .


You'll always be my pretty dancer
Spinning trails of fairy dust
Making moves like nobody else
On your own
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Giving me shockwaves
Those magical mistakes
Sending shockwaves through my atmosphere
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

If those eyelids were the shutter to my camera
Maybe I would see the world in different light
You wear that smile like nobody else
On your own
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Giving me shockwaves
Those magical mistakes
Sending shockwaves through my atmosphere
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Stay gold
Keep your balance on the tightrope
Chasing after
My pretty dancer

Giving me shockwaves
Those magical mistakes
Sending shockwaves through my atmosphere
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Giving me shockwaves
Those magical mistakes
Sending shockwaves through my atmosphere
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

. . .


The world is too heavy,
too big for my shoulders,
come take the weight off me, now.

Thousands of answers,
for one simple question,
come take the weight off me, now.

I'm like a kid who just won't let it go,
Twisting and turning the colours in rows,
I'm so intensified that's what it is.
This is my Rubik's Cube
And all i can't figure it out.

We're lost in the playground,
Late night nostalgia,
open the sky for me, now.

Friends round the fire,
Outside in December
Open the sky for me now.

I'm like a kid who just won't let it go,
Twisting and turning the colours in rows,
I'm so intensified thats what it is.
This is my Rubik's Cube
And all i can't figure it out.

Credits roll over,
the edge of the horizons,
but I haven't discovered yet.

I'm like a kid who just won't let it go,
Twisting and turning the colours in rows,
I'm so intensified thats what it is.
This is my Rubik's Cube
And all I can't figure it out.

As a friendly fire
Wasn't quite enough
You go and drop this
Bomb on us

The devil stood there
Drenched in sand
I'm here to give you a
Helping hand

Wild Wolves, always stare me out
I'm not running
I'm not running away

And the desert brought
News from the West
This could be your biggest test
Grab your gun and your survival kit
We're gonna get through the very worst of this

So, Wild Wolves, always stare me out
I'm not running
I'm not running
Wild Wolves, always stare me out
I'm not running
I'm not running away

And my soul is a dark place
But I know your love
I know your love
My soul is a dark place
And my soul is a lonely one
And I'm not alone
I'm not alone
My soul is a lonely one
I'm not alone
I'm not alone

Wild Wolves, always stare me out
I'm not running
I'm not running
Wild Wolves, always stare me out
I'm not running
I'm not running away

[No lyrics]

You say it wrong
You say it strange
You speak a language I can't translate

You say it now while the story's young
And all the melody before the song is sung

You and I both know you're no ordinary angel
Riding on the highway
You're no ordinary angel

Drifted off into a golden sky
Oblivious to any danger

I heard your voice over two hundred yards away
And I ran right back into the feelings
Yeah

You and I both know you're no ordinary angel
Riding on the highway
You're no ordinary angel

You and I both know you're no ordinary angel
Riding on the highway
You're no ordinary angel

I see you smiling at the unknown
At the unknown

I see you smiling at the unknown
At the unknown

You and I both know you're no ordinary angel
Riding on the highway
You're no ordinary angel

You and I both know you're no ordinary angel
Riding on the highway
You're no ordinary angel
