Paroles de Some Fires

There is comfort you do not grow out of, shoes you cannot replace Birthdays you always look back on, goodbyes you cannot erase There are memories you never go back to, and those where you always return There are fires you have to keep tending, and those that just know how to burn There's a walk you wish never ended, a friendship you wish never changed Hopes you wish they'd hold onto, adjustments you just can't arrange There's a summer perfect and golden, when the young and the foolish don't know There are torches you have to carry, and those that will follow wherever you go But a life doesn't go where you lead it, adventures don't do what they're told And i don't know the reason, why i push myself out in the cold So find me an answer to the bump in the night, why some love won't let you alone Some fires go out when you leave them, some keep burning all on their own There are memories you never go back to, and those where you always return There are fires you have to keep tending, and those that just know how to burn
