Intro

Verse

Born from the night in the roaring wind

Cast out of the shadows by an unknown hand

Warmed by the light of these falling limbs

Drunk on the sadness of a universe unmanned

Across the water she clings to me

and in the rising calm I feel her at my side

My father's singing in the fallin' leaves

about the complicated beauty of a river run dry.

Refrain

Sit down by the fire

Sit down by the fire

Verse

It's hard to say

but I think you'd better

just say you don't love me

you don't love me anymore

I been waiting in line

now I know I'll never

Overcome this madness

if I don't know for sure

Across the water she clings to me

and in the light of dawn

I see her at my side

My father's singing in the fallin' leaves

there's no way out of this old world even if you try

Refrain

So just sit down by the fire

sit down by the fire

there ain't no way to get what I want

Sit down by the fire

oh, sit down by the fire

There ain't no way to get what I want

Bridge

Some day

a little rain is bound to fall

Some day

a little rain is bound to fall

Some day

a little rain is bound to fall

Some day

Verse

Over my head my heart and my feet

I'm drawn insane

you know I need you now

Over my head my heart and my feet

I'm drawn insane

Refrain

Sit down by the fire love

sit down by the fire

there ain't no way to get what I want

Sit down by the fire love

sit down by the fire

there ain't no way to get what I want.

Oooohoho, there ain't no way to get what I want.
