Set the prairie on fire


S. colvin - elly brown

Full full moon and
That same sad nature
I wanna cover every inch of you
Like ink on paper
Like the blind parade of souls
Consumed by religion
I cant wait til I get you
In that defenseless position

Chorus:
When we set the prairie on fire
Oh we go down to the water
Naked and slow
You and me
And the heart of desire
We set the prairie on fire
How hard will the wind blow
How far will it go

When the feeling burns down
To one solitary color
The velocity of longing
Melting into each other
Its a song our fingers play
All at once and together
You can bet we never learned it
But weve known it forever

Oh I dreamed that we were flying
Carried up from the ashes
Black silhouettes of velvet
Against the crimson of passion
We can almost hear the echoes
From the smoldering meadow
Its the rapture of the angels
And the rage of the devil

Chorus

In the cool dusk of horses
Through the rusted wires of sleep
With our arms around midnight
Were headed for release
We go riding in the wind
We go riding in the dark
Go riding, riding

Chorus

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
