Setting Fire To Photographs Songtext
Raindrops fall against your window
As you drift to sleep all alone
You've been setting fire to photographs
With tears in your eyes, you burnt away the past
And now I'm gone
But I'll be with you where you go
I'll be the leaves that you kick at your feet in the fall
Can you feel my ghost holding you close tonight?
I'm screaming out loud, but you'll never hear me
Still, I sing...
Please don't you cry, beautiful
I'm sorry that I left so soon
Eyes to the sky, beautiful
Because I'm in the stars, watching over you
Oh, I'm dying to touch; to let you know I'm here
And it's all just too much when I can't take away your tears
I want you to know that you were all I had
It's okay to let go if I'm never coming back
Please don't cry, not one more tear
Hold your head high, my dear
The day that I died, I lost all my fear
And I learned how to fly so I could stay near
Please don't you cry, beautiful
I'm sorry that I left so soon
Eyes to the sky, beautiful
Because I'm in the stars, watching over you
I'm in the stars, watching over you
As you drift to sleep all alone
You've been setting fire to photographs
With tears in your eyes, you burnt away the past
And now I'm gone
But I'll be with you where you go
I'll be the leaves that you kick at your feet in the fall
Can you feel my ghost holding you close tonight?
I'm screaming out loud, but you'll never hear me
Still, I sing...
Please don't you cry, beautiful
I'm sorry that I left so soon
Eyes to the sky, beautiful
Because I'm in the stars, watching over you
Oh, I'm dying to touch; to let you know I'm here
And it's all just too much when I can't take away your tears
I want you to know that you were all I had
It's okay to let go if I'm never coming back
Please don't cry, not one more tear
Hold your head high, my dear
The day that I died, I lost all my fear
And I learned how to fly so I could stay near
Please don't you cry, beautiful
I'm sorry that I left so soon
Eyes to the sky, beautiful
Because I'm in the stars, watching over you
I'm in the stars, watching over you
