lyrics

What does it take to get you started?
Only fools seem to wait like we do
Now that this boat has already parted,
such a beautiful waste of time, me and you
But I’m so glad that you filled my cup
'cause now things are looking up
and all that you said I will keep in my head like treasure

So you, only you, light my fuse, light, light my fuse
Oh you, only you, sittin’ in the corner with your lonesome blues
Oh you, only you, light my fuse, light, light my fuse
Oh you, only you

What can I say to make the stars move
and erase what is written in our sky?
Might they show mercy on a fool,
on a fool who watches her ship passing by?
Now I find me tripping on new ground
Tell me how do I move forward when I keep turning around?

So you, only you, light my fuse, light, light my fuse
Oh you, only you, sittin’ in the corner with your lonesome blues
Oh you, only you, light my fuse, light, light my fuse
Oh you, only you

So you, only you, light my fuse, light, light my fuse
Oh you, only you, sittin’ in the corner with your lonesome blues
Oh you, only you, light my fuse, light, light my fuse
Oh you, only you

[And all that you said I will keep in my head like treasure
What can I say to make the stars move?
And all that you said I will keep in my head like treasure
What can I say to make the stars move?]
