Lyrics

She was a fire on my front porch
Casting shadows over my brand new world
Flames brilliant wonder dancing in my dreams

Oh I heard the warning shot:
“Don’t lose this time!
It’ll only be there as long as you are right
In your head!"

And I say
Once you’re found you find the leaves burn best in the fall
And I say
Autumn’s leaves burn brightest, burn brightest of them all

There is a mattress stretched out on the floor
Cause she took my nest and everything now I’m poor
But that’s alright for I get to see her face
In the mornin’

Oh I heard the warning shot “don’t lose this time
It’ll only be there as long as you are right
In your head”

And I say
Once you’re found you find the leaves burn best in the fall
Autumn’s leaves burn brightest, burn brightest of them all

There was a mattress stretched out on the floor
Flames dancing in my dreams like never before
There is a fire sleeping in my bed
Autumn’s leaves burn brightest of them all
