lyrics
There was a spark in my house
but we could not see it, we were out
so the smoke billowed through each room
turning black and oily what I knew
What would you give to paint the walls white
what would you give for a second chance at life
what would you give to have never set it off
what would you give for my love
There was a needle in the hay
but it had sifted to the bottom, till one day
you and I rode the eye of a hurricane
and it stitched us back together where we lay
What would you give to paint the walls white
what would you give for a second chance at life
what would you give to have never set it off
what would you give for my love
but we could not see it, we were out
so the smoke billowed through each room
turning black and oily what I knew
What would you give to paint the walls white
what would you give for a second chance at life
what would you give to have never set it off
what would you give for my love
There was a needle in the hay
but it had sifted to the bottom, till one day
you and I rode the eye of a hurricane
and it stitched us back together where we lay
What would you give to paint the walls white
what would you give for a second chance at life
what would you give to have never set it off
what would you give for my love
