Backdraft Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Leave me here and lock the door
Latch the windows, lose the key
But you'll be back someday
What else then is true love for
If not to starve and wait for spring?
So I'll just sit and wait, I'll just sit and wait
[Chorus]
Oh, swing the door wide open
Show me your jaded eyes
I will turn them red
Drunk with vivid flame
You will see again
And you will learn your real name
Oh, swing the door wide open
Show me your jaded eyes
I will turn them red
Drunk with vivid flame
You will see again
And you will learn your real name and speak it
[Verse 2]
Leave me with no air to breathe
Leave me here to die alone
But I won't suffocate
I'll have everything I need
When you forget and come back home
So I'll just sit and wait, I'll just sit and wait
[Chorus]
Oh, swing the door wide open
Show me your jaded eyes
I will turn them red
Drunk with vivid flame
You will see again
And you will learn your real name
As your whole world turns to fire
Oh, swing the door wide open
Show me your jaded eyes
I will turn them red
Drunk with vivid flame
You will see again
And you will learn your real name
As your whole world turns to fire
As your whole world turns to fire
Turns to fire
