Building Me A Fire - Steve Forbert

Well I’m lonely now

More than I used to be…

I need more from you

More than you need from me…

Well I’m stranded here…

But I don’t need to be …

So I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave you

So I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave you

Now I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave… you

Well my solitude

Sure gave me peace of mind…

It may all… the crooked ways

That much harder to find…

But they’re all I knew…

Became a mem… o…ry…

So I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave you

Now I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave you

So I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave… you

Well I’m stranded here…

But I don’t need to be…

So I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave you

So I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave you

Now I’m building me a fire and

The smoke’s gonna leave… you

Well I’m lonely now

Well I’m lonely now

Well I’m lonely now
