You Are a Tourist Songtext
von Death Cab for Cutie

This fire grows higher
This fire grows higher
This fire grows higher
This fire grows higher

When there′s a burning in your heart
An endless yearning in your heart
Build it bigger than the sun, let it grow, let it grow
When there's a burning in your heart, don′t be alarmed

This fire grows higher

When there's a doubt within your mind
'Cause you′re thinking all the time
Framing rights in the wrongs, move along
Move along when there′s a doubt within your mind


When there's a burning in your heart
And you think it′ll burst apart
Or there's nothing to feel, save the tears
Save the tears when there′s a burning in your heart

And if you feel just like a tourist
In the city you were born, then it's time to go
And define your destination
There′s so many different places to call home

'Cause when you find yourself the villain
In the story you have written, it's plain to see
That sometimes, the best intentions
Are in need of redemptions, would you agree?
If so, please, show me

This fire grows higher
This fire grows higher

When there′s a burning in your heart
When there′s a burning in your heart


(This fire grows higher) when there's a burning in your heart
(This fire grows higher, this fire grows higher)
When there′s a burning in your heart (this fire grows higher)
(This fire grows higher) when there's a burning in your heart
