Spark Lyrics by Ed Sheeran

- (Subtract) [Deluxe Vinyl Edition]

2023

[Verse 1]
We've been lost for a long time
In a rut, no escape signs
And, for love, we were so blind
Oh, I hate to see you cry
There've been times where the truth lied
Now, it's clear as a blue sky

[Pre-Chorus]
Like a Band-Aid over deeper cuts, we tried
We couldn't stop the fate descending on the night

[Chorus]
We'll build a fire and torch our old lives
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling, light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, we hope the spark survives

[Verse 2]
Oh, I wonder, will we pull through?
All we ever do is argue
With not a lot, but we make do
How I wish you wouldn't say that
There are things you can't take back
When you leave, I always face facts

[Pre-Chorus]
Like a hand that's trying to hold the water back
We couldn't stop the ocean leaking in the cracks

[Chorus]
We'll build a fire and torch our old lives
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling, light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, we hope the spark survives

[Bridge]
We've taken roads (Oh, we've taken roads)
That led to confusion
But right now, that don't matter at all (Na-na)
We'll bring it back (Yeah, we'll bring it back)
Our love's no illusion
The higher we go, the harder we fall, and now

[Chorus]
We'll build a fire and torch our old lives
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling, light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
And we hope the spark survives
