We are dead to rights morning ray We are thick and thin 'til our last days So hold me close and I'll surrender to your heart You know how to give and how to take You see every hope I locked away So pull me close and surrender to my heart Before the flame goes out tonight Yeah, we'll live until we die So c'mon c'mon c'mon Won't you turn my soul into a raging fire? C'mon c'mon c'mon 'Til we lose control into a raging fire Into a raging fire C'mon c'mon c'mon Won't you turn my soul into a raging fire? You know time will give and time will take All the memories made will wash away Even though we've changed, I'm still here with you If you listen close, you'll hear the sound Of all the ghosts that bring us down Hold on to what makes you feel Don't let go, it's what makes you real If the flame goes out tonight Yeah, we'll live until we die So c'mon c'mon c'mon Won't you turn my soul into a raging fire? C'mon c'mon c'mon 'Til we lose control into a raging fire Into a raging fire C'mon c'mon c'mon Won't you turn my soul into a raging fire? Let the world leave us behind, Let your heart be next to mine Before the flame goes out tonight, We can live until we die C'mon c'mon c'mon Won't you turn my soul into a raging fire? C'mon c'mon c'mon Won't you turn my soul into a raging fire? C'mon c'mon c'mon 'Til we lose control into a raging fire Into a raging fire
