Should We Let the Fire Die? Lyrics by Branches

White Flag

2016

[Verse 1]
Should we let the fire die?
Should we let the fire die?
The sparks still have a flicker and the night is growing thicker, but
Should we let the fire die?
[Verse 2]
Or should we stay out a little longer?
Should we stay out a little longer?
The riverbanks are singing with the waters that they're bringing
So should we stay out a little longer?
[Verse 3]
Should we say goodnight to the stars?
Should we say goodnight to the stars?
Or should we, in our places, keep letting the absence sing us to sleep
Should we say goodnight to the stars?
[Chorus]
Oh, I never
Oh, I never
Oh, I never saw you coming
[Verse 4]
My dear, I have one last thing to ask you
My dear, I have one last thing to ask you
I've asked about the embers bright
The riverbanks and the starry night
But, my dear, I have one last thing to ask you
[Verse 5]
Can I kiss you before the night is through?
Can I kiss you before the night is through?
That's my only question, so, my darling, please say yes and then
I'll kiss you before the night is through
[Chorus]
Oh, I never
Oh, I never
Oh, I never saw you coming
