MAKE A FIRE TONIGHT
Sleeping free on mountain sides
Tobacco sunset frames my every sight
In an hour the sun will die
I’m on my knees to kiss the ground goodbye
So farewell to a stranger
I’ll take a match and with my brothers I am gonna make a fire tonight
Getting lost in open land
I know this place just like I knew the man
Raise the tent and settle down
Sit with me and lift your glass of tan
We’re drinking to a stranger
I’ll take some wood and with my brothers I am gonna make a fire tonight
My soul is drifting tonight
I can almost touch your hand
We’ve never been so close as now
My eyes are wet but I’m still laughing out
We’re seeing off a stranger
I’ll take this moment with my brothers and I am gonna make a fire tonight
We’re gonna make a fire tonight
