Rickie Lee Jones - Bonfires In Hell lyrics

There's just one thing before I go You are the sweetest boy I know I've lived my whole life in the past I awoke last night at last I thought I'd finally won your heart that forever never part And in sweet love we would grow old Now I'm just a scavenger in the cold I'm just a scavenger All I can do is wish you well And light the bonfires of hell Honey, you hurt me bad this time I'm burning everything I find You hurt me bad this time You nearly tore me from my mind Before I knew I had been hurt She laid her hair across your shirt She laid her hair All I can do is wish you well And light the bonfires of hell There's just one thing before I go You are the sweetest boy I know You are the sweetest boy If there's a sun I'll watch it rise To dry the tears out of my eyes If there's a river you can bet There'll be a sea from my heart yet There'll be a sea from my heart yet
