Start A Fire (Acoustic) - Passenger

I was born a baby boy

A long time ago

Back when the hillsides were green

And the water would flow

But nights they fall

And settle like snow

I watched as the hillsides turned

White with nowhere to go

Oh think I'm gonna start a fire

Oh think I'm gonna start a fire

Now my heart's a frozen lake

Where streams used to flow

Down to the forest of my mind

Where memory would grow

Now I walk amongst the trees

Where the last sun glows

The leaves are all golden

And brown with nowhere to go

Oh think I'm gonna start a fire

Oh think I'm gonna start a fire

My skin like these boulders

Is cracking and older

With each passing year that goes

My cliff face is crumbling

Silently tumbling

Down to the water below

And if I light a match

I'll be able to catch

The last sun before it goes

And oh well I think

I'm gonna start a fire

Oh think I'm gonna start a fire

And oh think I'm gonna start a fire now
