Fire Escape

[Verse 1]
I used to think of life as
A carnival ride
I spun my body round and round
The higher I'd climb
The freer the fall
Fan the flame, don't let it die

[Refrain]
It used to take
A fire escape
Now all it takes is your love

[Verse 2]
My favorite blues
You stole the hue
And turned the storm to a blue sky
You propped me up, and you
Called my bluff
Said “Get your shit together, guy.”

[Refrain]
It used to take
A fire escape
Now all it takes is your love

[Bridge]
Your love in every heartbeat
Your love in every vein
Your love is the silver linin'
That keeps me sane

[Verse 3]
So call the doctor
Call it sweet
But I've got twilight in my heart
These empty days
They are such a treat
I want to stay right where we are

[Refrain]
It used to take
A fire escape
Now all it takes is your love
