Gonna Start a Bonfire


I'll burn the strip of photographs
Taken in that tiny booth
You were making silly faces
We laughed the whole day through

I'll burn all the love letters
The heart shaped Valentines
The ones I have read
at least a thousand times

Chorus
Gonna start a bonfire
Oh, I think its time
Stack it high with memories
And fan it with goodbye
Gonna start a bonfire
And build it ten miles high
Watch it light up the sky
while I kiss our love goodbye


When I caught you in the parking lot
Lip stick marks were on your face
The desire burning in your eyes
Revealed the truth that day

I bet you've never told her
All the plans that we have made
But I won't try to stop you
My heart just walked away

Repeat Chorus

Musical Break

Bridge
Your blind passion made the flames burn, oh so bright,
What I thought was eternal love went up in smoke tonight

Repeat Chorus
