Intro

Verse

Born from the night in the roaring wind

 Cast out of the shadows by an unknown hand

 Warmed by the light of these falling limbs

 Drunk on the sadness of a universe unmanned

 Across the water she clings to me

 and in the rising calm I feel her at my side

 My father's singing in the fallin' leaves

 about the complicated beauty of a river run dry.

Refrain

Sit down by the fire

 Sit down by the fire

Verse

It's hard to say

 but I think you'd better

 just say you don't love me

 you don't love me anymore

I been waiting in line

 now I know I'll never

 Overcome this madness

 if I don't know for sure

 Across the water she clings to me

 and in the light of dawn

 I see her at my side

 My father's singing in the fallin' leaves

 there's no way out of this old world even if you try

Refrain

So just sit down by the fire

 sit down by the fire

there ain't no way to get what I want

Sit down by the fire

 oh, sit down by the fire

There ain't no way to get what I want

Bridge

 Some day

 a little rain is bound to fall

 Some day

 a little rain is bound to fall

 Some day

 a little rain is bound to fall

 Some day

Verse

Over my head my heart and my feet

 I'm drawn insane

 you know I need you now

 Over my head my heart and my feet

 I'm drawn insane

Refrain

 Sit down by the fire love

 sit down by the fire

there ain't no way to get what I want

Sit down by the fire love

 sit down by the fire

there ain't no way to get what I want.

 Oooohoho, there ain't no way to get what I want.
