[English]

Your mouth is a revolver, firin' bullets in the sky
Your love is like a soldier, loyal 'til you die
And I've been looking at the stars for a long, long time
I've been puttin' out fires, all my life
Everybody wants a flame, they don't wanna get burned
And today is our turn
Days like these lead to, nights like this lead to
Love like ours, you light the spark in my bonfire heart
People like us, we don't need that much
Just some-one that starts, starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
This world is getting colder, strangers passin' by
No one offers you a shoulder, no one looks you in the eye, eye, eye
But I've been lookin' at you, for a long, long time
Just trying to break through, trying to make you mine
Everybody wants a flame, they don't wanna to get burned
Well, today is our turn
Days like these lead to, nights like this lead to
Love like ours, you light the spark in my bonfire heart
People like us, we don't need that much
Just some-one that starts, starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
Our bonfire heart
Our bonfire heart
Oh, our bonfire heart
You light the spark
People like us, we don't need that much
Just some-one that starts, starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
Days like these lead to, nights like this lead to
Love like ours, you light the spark in my bonfire heart (two, three, four)
People like us, we don't need that much
Just some-one that starts, starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
Our bonfire heart
Days like these lead to, nights like this lead to
Love like ours, you light the spark in my bonfire heart
People like us, we don't need that much
Just some-one that starts, starts the spark in our bonfire hearts
