Southern Skies

I want to see the full moon in the southern sky

I want to take you back to, back to when we felt alive

And I don't know why

I don't know how to say

Come with me and I won't fall without a fight

I want to make a toast to the love that never dies

I want to see the world through, through someone else's eyes

And get swept away

For just one more day, I'd say

Now I'm done with running away

Burn me

You go and burn me down

I need you now

Turn me around

Oh, you got me

Yeah, you got me

It's safe to say

I'm done with running away

If I had it my way we'd put the past aside

We'd take the boat to the bay leaving the whole world behind

As the sea takes hold

Of our tales untold, I'd say

Come with me and I won't fall without a fight

If you're scared it's ok

If you leave it's fine

If you must run away leaving us to wonder why

If we had more time

If I'd found the lines to say

Now I'm done with running away

Burn me

You go and burn me down

I need you now

Turn me around

Oh, you got me

Yeah, you got me

It's safe to say

I'm done with running away

The fire hits my tongue

The lightning starts to fill my lungs

And the words I meant to say are pouring out now one by one

I've been searching long for something real

For a way to feel just strong enough to say

I'm done with running away

Burn me

You go and burn me down

I need you now

Turn me around

Ooh, you got me

Yeah, you got me

It's safe to say

Burn me

(The fire hits my tongue)

You go and burn me down

(The words I meant to say are pouring out one by one)

I need you now

Turn me around

(Turn me around)

Oh, you got me

Yeah, you got me

It's safe to say

I'm done with running away
