Phoenix Songtext
von Aoife O’Donovan
Phoenix Songtext
Time′s not the villain
Coming up behind you is a marigold sun
Love, if you're willing, take a little more time
I smell fire
It′s coming from the flames that are dancing on my wings
I'm a bird on a wire killing time
Fever's got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever′s got me quaking like
San Andreas fault
Just put a cloth to my brow
I′ll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I'm ready now
Looking for forgiveness
Looking in every cupboard in every room
I′m bearing witness to the passing time
But the clock is ticking
Like an old man singing at the top of his lungs
And the light is flickering, running out
Fever's got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever′s got me quaking like
San Andreas fault
Just put a cloth to my brow
I'll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I′m ready now
Everybody's looking for somebody to blame
The stages of sadness, how many can you name?
I stopped at anger, never felt the same
They say it'll fade my scars, my tears will dry
I′ll lie under the stars again
Not wondering where you are
Fever′s got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever's got me quaking like
San Andreas fault
Just put a cloth to my brow
I′ll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I'm ready now
I′m ready now, I'm ready now
Coming up behind you is a marigold sun
Love, if you're willing, take a little more time
I smell fire
It′s coming from the flames that are dancing on my wings
I'm a bird on a wire killing time
Fever's got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever′s got me quaking like
San Andreas fault
Just put a cloth to my brow
I′ll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I'm ready now
Looking for forgiveness
Looking in every cupboard in every room
I′m bearing witness to the passing time
But the clock is ticking
Like an old man singing at the top of his lungs
And the light is flickering, running out
Fever's got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever′s got me quaking like
San Andreas fault
Just put a cloth to my brow
I'll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I′m ready now
Everybody's looking for somebody to blame
The stages of sadness, how many can you name?
I stopped at anger, never felt the same
They say it'll fade my scars, my tears will dry
I′ll lie under the stars again
Not wondering where you are
Fever′s got me shaking
It rises up like a road to meet me
Fever's got me quaking like
San Andreas fault
Just put a cloth to my brow
I′ll soar like a phoenix from the ashes
Put a pretty blanket down
I'm ready now
I′m ready now, I'm ready now
