Fire Away - Lucy Schwartz

When I was tying my laces

Reading books with just pictures

I had dreams of many places

Never found out where they were

So fire away, fire away, fire away, fire

Fire away, fire away, fire away, fire

Two bags of books and a suitcase

Leaving my only hometown

Father and mother will worry

But I’ve got to get lost to be found

So fire away, fire away, fire away, fire

Fire away, fire away, fire away, fire

With a heavy heart

And open arms

With a heavy heart

And open arms

I feel the wind at my footstep

Thunder inside of my bones

My legs come unfixed and they’re running

Chasing the timekeepers call

So fire away, fire away, fire away, fire

Fire away, fire away, fire away, fire

With a heavy heart

And open arms

With a heavy heart

And open arms

Fire away, fire away, fire away, fire
