I'm not your enemy, baby
I'll be the one who takes you home
When the lights go out on this ghost town

And you don't owe me anything
We just can't face our fears alone
Live tonight, tomorrow never knows where we'll be


Baby's on fire like the colors of fall
The radio's up, we're under control

And sooner or later
Sooner or later
You'll want it all

Baby's on fire like the colors of fall
We placed our bets on broken hearts
And sooner or later

Summer was over
And we lost it all


I feel it pulling me lately
Like I want more than all I've known
Like graceful winds have blown my heart up here

And with this untapped energy
We'll carve our names in the unknown
The goodness always nipping at our heels

Where we'll be

Baby's on fire like the colors of fall

The radio's up, we're under control
And sooner or later
Sooner or later

You'll want it all
Baby's on fire like the colors of fall
We placed our bets on broken hearts

And sooner or later
Summer was over
And we lost it all


It always seemed like we had no time
Like the world would end if we closed our eyes

So we hold our breath, and we took the dive
We never had a chance, but I'm happy we tried


It always seemed like we had no chance
Like we had no time at all
Like we had no chance

No time, no time again

Baby's on fire like the colors of fall

The radio's up, we're under control
And sooner or later
Sooner or later

You'll want it all
Baby's on fire like the colors of fall
We placed our bets on broken hearts

And sooner or later
Summer was over
And we lost it all


Baby's on fire like the colors of fall
The radio's up, the windows down

And sooner or later
Sooner or later
You'll want it all

Baby's on fire like the colors of fall
We cut our teeth with careless hearts
And sooner or later

The summer was over
And we lost it all
