Lyrics The Wailin' Jennys

The Wailin' Jennys

Firecracker

A is for apple, B is for blind

I jumped so fast I left the ground behind

You set your sights homeward

And you are more than wise

It's late night heading into morning

You can get used to almost anything

Deep sea eyes, porcelain skin

Love's sweet nests and their boxing rings

It's late night heading into morning

Firecracker, firecracker

Sparkling in the sky

To those of us who saw

Looked like the fire should die

Knowledge pulls the reigns against

The bliss that I once knew

When you set your sights on me

And the firecrackers flew

Ocean of friendship, diamonds far and deep

We still talk of the future

Remembering soft sleep

A is for apple, apple of my eye

It's late night heading into morning

Late night heading into morning...
