LYRICS

Two by two they came into that sunlit room,
The only church in this town
The only town that I ever knew.
And I sat in the back row, next to the open door
So I could feel the BREEZE on my skin
I know that is something more than just is.

I saw you walking down, belt avenue
From the back window of my father's car
You waved at me and I waved at you.

And we kissed after years waiting, years of holding hands
And I felt something shift inside my soul,
That no man could understand
I BURN like a church on fire.
In the light of the afternoon
I hope you can FEEL my desire
Cause these flames rise for YOU.

One by one, I went through all the things I've DONE
To get to this place I stand, when
Looked down and don't recognize my own hands.

I wrote you letter for every day
I was away.
How many words does one man needs to say what he has to say
You see, I burn like a CHURCH ON FIRE.

Yeah, that was me
I poured the gasoline,
I lit the match for everyone to see
Fireworks in my heart!
Yeah, that was me
I burnt to the ground,
Yeah, that was me
I burnt it all down
Burn this to the ground
All the things that've let us down
All the things that've let us down

You see, I burn like the church on fire
In the light of the afternoon
I hope you can see my desire
Cause these flames RISE for YOU.

One by one, I went through all the things I've done
To get to this place I stand.
