She's on Fire - The Clarks

Her eyes, they came out of the blue

She stared right through you

And then she heard your first words

And that look of love came out

That’s burnt

All the rules that you parents had

You brought them back around again

They all made sense

Did she understand why

Your little best friend

She was a girl you made

She was your little girl, yesterday

Grown up and gone her own way

She’s on fire

Gone, she’s on fire

She’s on fire

Gone, she’s on fire

All the words she knew, you helped her with a few

Came out of nowhere at all

You held her hand and let it go

That’s how she learned how to fall

All his nick nacks she’s pushing back

She gave the dog a bone

And said «I'll do it my way»

She wears your stubbornness, and no

That ain’t gonna change

She was a girl you made

She was your little girl, yesterday

She’s grown up and gone her own way

She’s on fire

Gone, she’s on fire

She’s on fire

Gone, she’s on fire

She’s walking to her

down a one way street

But she’s not alone

There’s a tree in the back yard she used to climb

And now it’s run out of rings

One thing that never grows old

Is how her daddy sings

She’s on fire

She’s on fire

She’s on fire

She’s on fire

Gone, she’s on fire

She’s on fire

Gone, she’s on fire

She’s on fire

Gone, she’s on fire

She’s on fire

Gone, she’s on fire
