Moxy Fruvous - Love Set Fire lyrics

Small paper cranes

and wall paper stains

that the pictures can hardly conceal

Love letters bent

from tears that were spent

on a cruel and a shabby ideal

But love set fire

to everything

and the flames looked like

angel's wings.

We played our parts

with paper hearts

and love set fire

to everything.

I know that it's wrong

to stay here this long

haunted by all of her things

I found out too late

only fools feel safe

in a house made of jokers and kings

But Love set fire

to everything

and the flames looked like

angels wings.

We played our parts

with paper hearts

(All)

and love set fire

to everything.

(accordion and string solo)

(Murray)

I've tried to escape her

and these bits of paper

but the memories I just can't outrun

So I'll keep lighting matches

when one of them catches

this thing will finally

be done

(All)

But Love set fire

to everything

and the flames looked like

angels wings.

We played our parts

with paper hearts

and love set fire

to everything.
