Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I was counting stars through the ceiling
When the phone started ringing
You said, "Come out, I know a place"
Like you already knew what I'd say
The street mirrors, the traffic slows
With something strange on the radio
You put your hand on my arm
And suddenly nothing seemed wrong
[Pre-Chorus 1] So the noise is gone
The picture's clean
I hear your voice
In the machine
Then you said, "Don't think too much"
So I won't
And I didn't
[Chorus 1] We were on fire
Running through the wires
Something in the signal
Was taking us higher
You took me somewhere
I'd never been
Don't know where it was
But I'll try recalling
[Post-Chorus 1] Yeah, we were on fire
And I could feel it
A little too close
A little too real
[Verse 2] No maps, no names, no directions
You pulled me out of my hesitation
We passed a bar with frayed walls
You laughed at something I never said
Chasing a lightshow over the river
You said, "Stay here, just a little longer"
I asked you where we were going
You said, "Does it matter?"
[Pre-Chorus 2] Maybe it did
Maybe it didn't
You kept running
And I kept with you
And if tomorrow asks where I've been
I'll tell it nothing
I'll tell it nothing
[Chorus 2] We were on fire
Running through the wires
Something in the signal
Was taking us higher
You took me somewhere
I'd never been
Don't know where it was
But I'll try recalling
[Post-Chorus 2] Yeah, we were on fire
And I could feel it
A little too close
A little too real
[Bridge] After the lightshow
In the afterglow
There was an ocean
Under our feet
You showed me the quiet
Nobody gets to see
And for a moment
You belonged to me
Or maybe I belonged to you
I don't know
I don't know
[Final Chorus] We were on fire
Running through the wires
Something in the signal
Was taking us higher
Yeah, we were on fire
And I could feel it
Maybe it's desire
Maybe I just needed it
[Outro] After the lightshow
In the afterglow
I remember you saying
"Don't go home tonight" [End]
