The Fuse (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Down at the court house they’re ringin’ the flag down
Long black line of cars snakin’ slow through town
Red sheets snappin’ on the line
With this ring will you be mine
The fuse is burning
(Shut out the lights)
The fuse is burning
(Come on let me do you right)

Trees on fire with the first fall’s frost
Long black line in front of Holy Cross
Blood moon risin’ in a sky of black dust
Tell me baby who do you trust?
The fuse is burning
(Shut out the lights)
The fuse is burning
(Come on let me do you right)

Tires on the highway hissin’ something’s coming
You can feel the wires in the tree tops bummin’
Devil’s on the horizon line
Your kiss and I’m alive

A quiet afternoon, an empty house
On the edge of your bed you slip off your blouse
The room is burning with the noon sun
Your bittersweet taste on my tongue
The fuse is burning
(Shut out the lights)
The fuse is burning
(Come on let me do you right)

The Fuse (Letra)

I wish i’d never heard the news
(never had a good day)
Baby wants a pair of shoes
(how’m i gonna repay?)
A thousand fingers touch my heart

I need so much
Blue force is tearing me apart

No time for might have been
You’re on the winning team
No time to choose
It’s time to light the fuse

I know there’s nothing i can do
(don’t let it freeze you)
The age of miracles is through
(they’re never gonna please you)

The iceman’s back, he treats the crowds

And ice is free
Blue force is pouring from the clouds

Tonight could be the night
We’ll walk into the cool light
Though i’ll not see you again

Light the fuse now!

They say the best’s too good for you
Your head’s on fire)
That golden letdown can’t be true
(push push a little higher)
But when they say that we can’t win

And you agree
Blue force will never fight for sin

I heard a voice tonight

Calling by satellite
`thousands are right
And some will light the fuse"

No time for might have been
You’re on the winning team

No time to choose
It’s time to light the fuse

I heard a voice tonight

Calling by satellite
`thousands are right
And some will light the fuse"

No time for might have been
You’re on the winning team

No time to choose
It’s time to light the fuse

It’s coming from so far away
It’s hard to say for sure
Whether what i hear is music or the wind
Through an open door
There’s a fire high in the empty sky
Where the sound meets the shore
There’s a long distance loneliness
Rolling out over the desert floor

And the years that i spent lost in the mystery
Fall away leaving only the sound of the drum
Like a part of me
It speaks to the heart of me
Forget what life used to be
You are what you choose to be
It’s whatever it is you see
That life will become

Whatever it is you might think you have
You have nothing to lose
Through every dead and living thing
Time runs like a fuse
And the fuse is burning
And the earth is turning

Though the years give way to uncertainty
And the fear of living for nothing strangles the will
There’s a part of me
That speaks to the heart of me
Though sometimes it’s hard to see
It’s never far from me
Alive in eternity
That nothing can kill

Oh lord
Are there really people starving still?
Look out beyond the walls of babylon
How long will their needs go unfilled
I want to say right now i’m going to be around
I’m going to be around
When the walls and towers are crumbling
When the towers are tumbling down
And i will tune my spirit to the gentle sound
I want to hear the sound
Of the waters lapping on a higher ground
Of the children laughing
