I threw the map into the fire tonight,
Watching the embers catch a golden light.
Now I am tracing the lines on your skin,
Ready to lose where the journey begins.
The rain on the roof is a steady soft beat,
While the cold of the evening gives way to the heat.
You pour the whiskey and slide off your shoes,
Leaving me nothing to win or to lose.
The distance between us is melting away,
Words that we wanted no longer to say.
My hands are a trembling compass in need,
Drawn to the magnetic rhythm you lead.
I am throwing away the broken compass tonight,
Because I only navigate by the firelight.
Let the stars fall and the highways all bend,
I am anchored right here where the boundaries end.
(Oh) Tangled up tight in the warmth of your hold,
(Oh) Loving you down till the universe folds.
A slow burning fire is catching the breeze,
Bringing my wandering soul to its knees.
Your lips are a whisper against the cool night,
Sparking a fever I do not want to fight.
The distance between us is melting away,
Erasing the borders we set for the day.
My hands are a trembling compass in need,
Drawn to the magnetic rhythm you lead.
I am throwing away the broken compass tonight,
Because I only navigate by the firelight.
Let the stars fall and the highways all bend,
I am anchored right here where the boundaries end.
(Oh) Tangled up tight in the warmth of your hold,
(Oh) Loving you down till the universe folds.
Let the glass shatter and the needle just spin,
This is the moment the true fires begin.
Every slow breath is a secret we keep,
Diving into an attraction so deep.
No logic or reason could ever explain,
Leaving Sayed completely lost in your rain.
I do not need a map anymore.
I just need you, right here, right now.
