lyrics
A fireside complaint about
Where we are and where we ain't
And you say it don't get much better
I say we can do so much better than this
the smoke turns and rises into our faces
We shuffle our chairs to the other side
And my feet get too hot to stand the fire
And my feet get too cold away from the fire
But I can't bring myself go inside
I'll tell you same stories we told
As kids by our own fire; age thirteen
I'm poking at the coals
to save this fire thats savin me
And we wake up under covers in the middle of the night
The fires out and dew has set
And you look up at me and say 'the night never ends
If we don't go inside so we don't'
Who knew a safe haven could be so close
To the place that you want to escape
Who knew the flicker of the flames could
Give me all the answers that no one could claim
