Fire Escape Songtext
von Alena Spanger

Ooh
Take me down to the place on the fire escape
Hmm, ooh
Longing eyes summer drive burn slow, hmm
Ooh (hmm)
4 a.m., lie awake with the tin rain sounds

Hmm
Take me there, take me there, take me there
Cool, bleary, bleary eyes
Two, your hands reply it cuts right
Through, I know waves crash love slow

It′s that accidental grace
Don't kill it with words, I am a queen
Sun playing coyly on our skin, hmm
It′s a dangerous feeling, hmm
It's a sinking in feeling like


Oceans, I know bleed fast love slow
It's the way that we know
It′s the way that we know
I′m shaking from this potion, I'm down
Sweet on salt like a spring runoff
It′s the way that we know
It's the way that we know
It′s the way that we know, hmm

To live by the sea is to be closer with death
It's a giving, not a taking
It′s a giving, not a taking
To live by the sea is to be closer with death
It's a giving, not a taking
It's a giving, not a taking

To live by the sea is to be closer with death
It′s a giving, not a taking
It′s a giving, not a taking
When it was a cold love (to live by the sea)
I will sing, I will run, I will dance in the waves
