Firework

Carolina
 I've been looking for the time to tell you
 Nothing feels the same since I moved
 Back from where you are
 Words don't line up
 And every time I try to lay them down
 The godforsaken page rips out and tears them into parts
 I'm tearing into parts
 So hallelujah
 Reads the church sign on the sidewalk now I pass along the five
 Blocks to the amber colored door
 What's it to you
 If I still believe in magic
 See the beauty in our tragic
 And want to feel like there's something more?
 Since I told you that I loved you and you said that isn't true
 'Cause you treat love like a firework just to keep the sky amused
 And you might find that given time
 The fire burns right down the fuse
 And you still stand too close
 California
 Can leave the money on the table and the silver
 In the halos of the angels in her sky
 But I adore you
 And so I'm getting on this train home and I'm
 Letting all these stars go
 I'm sleeping through the night
 Since I told you that I loved you and you said it might be true
 But you treat love like a firework just to keep the sky amused
 And you might find that over time
 And once the fire burns the fuse
 You still stand too close
 ♪
 If I said again I love you
 Would you say you know it's true?
 We can treat love like a firework just to keep the sky amused
 And we might find that given time, the fire burns right down the fuse
 But I'm still standing close
