Lyrics
We write the pages of our lives
Among the angels as they weep
Scratch out ordinary lines
And pray the Lord our soul to keep
I want you to see
I can be counted on
There's more to you and me
Than just this flesh and bone
There's a heart on fire
There's a heart on fire
We live in prisons that we make
With the unlived lives we lead
Call on love then push away
Drowning in the shallow end of the sea
I want you to know
When everything goes wrong
That there's more to love
Than just these tears you've known
There's a heart on fire
There's a heart on fire
I could never give you up
I could never walk away
You're wrapped around my soul
And love should be that way
Take this heart I give to you
With no promise of return
Etched out lines of love and truth
We watch the bridges as they burn
But I want you to know
You'll never be alone
Because my love's much more
Than just this flesh and bone
There's a heart on fire
There's a heart on fire
