Lyrics: Sam Roberts. We Were Born In A Flame. Rarefied.


The air tonight is rarefied
It's all I need, the air I breathe

You're buring all my bridges baby
Set your sights as low as they can go

You take up all my time little woman
You take up all my time
(My Dreams tonight are sanctified)
You say your sun don't shine little honey
You want a piece of mine
(They're all I need, they fill my sleep)
The air is thin up here little darling
The air is thin up here
But I won't shed no tears little sister
I won't shed no tears

You say you won't be a friend of mine
But you can't be my lover cause you take up all my time, yeah

The clock says five a.m. little honey
The clock says five a.m.
And you're just coming in little sister
You're just coming in
The air is thin up here little darling
The air is thin up here
But I won't shed no tears little honey
I won't shed no tears

You're burnin' all my bridges baby
Set your sights as low as they can go
That much I know
Say you won't be a friend of mine
But you'll never be my lover
'Cause you take up all my time
Yeah!
