Up On The Roof Lyrics

When this old world starts a getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space

On the roof it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below don't bother me
Oh no

So when I come home feeling tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet
And get far away from the hustling crowd
And all that rat race noise down in the street

On the roof that's the only place i know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof

At night the stars they put on a show for free
Yes they do
And darling you can share it all with me

That's what I said I keep on telling you
That right smack dab in the middle of town
I found a paradise that's trouble free
And if this old world stars getting you down
There's room enough for two up on the roof

At night the stars they put on a show for free yeah
And darling you can share it all with me

That's what I said I keep on telling you
That right smack dab in the middle of town
I found a paradise that's trouble free
If this old world stars getting you down
There's room enough for two up on the roof
Up on the roof oh yeah
Up on the roof

Walking Through Fire
When you set a match to your heart
Fueling it with bitterness and doubt
That's a blaze that once it startsIndigo Girls - Up On The Roof - http://motolyrics.com/indigo-girls/up-on-the-roof-lyrics.html
No amount of tears can put out
I know you're scared
But no one's spared
When you play with matches
You've got me walking through fire
You've got me walking through fire

Maybe you've been burned by lovers
Maybe you've been scarred by the pain
But baby I'm not like the others
Drawing moths to a flame
Spite is like a spark
Crackling in the dark
Consuming all it catches
And you've got me walking through fire
You've got me walking through fire to get to you
You've got me walking through fire
(Walking through fire)
You've got me walking through fire
(Walking through fire)

You can see the toll its taking
You can feel the faith it's shaking
You can hear the heart it's breaking now

Baby I've burned by the fever
I've been scorched by desire
But baby I'm not your deceiver
Or your eloquent liar
Your jealous heart is tearing us apart
And turning love to ashes
When you've got me walking through fire
You've got me walking through fire to get to you
You've got me walking through fire
You've got me walking through fire
You've got me walking through fire
(Walking through fire)
You've got me walking through fire
(Walking through fire)
As the flames shoot higher
You've got me walking through fire
(Walking through fire)
