Kerosene

lyrics

I'm comin' round your door, I'm comin' round for more
And I can finally see we're like matches to kerosene
It's been so many miles, did not expect this for a while
Expectations are just dreams that might burn like kerosene

I'm a do what I gotta do
I'm a find what's not in the air and I'll put it there
And all that is not me
I'll let it burn like kerosene

I was broken when I fell, exposed my delicate shell
With fire at the seam like flame to kerosene
Like a shattered work of art, I'll piece together this old heart
But however it may gleam it still burns like kerosene

I'm a do what I gotta do
I'm a find what's not in the air and I'll put it there
And all that is not me
I'll let it burn like kerosene

I've walked the path to hell with two pounds to sell
When I came up on the sea it burned like kerosene

If I could right some wrongs, I'd write the perfect song
I'd sing for you and me, love that burns like kerosene
It burns like kerosene
Love that burns like kerosene
