"Venusian Fires" lyrics

We walk out into the dark
With just the warmth from our hearts
Finding love in places
That we'd never even thought of
Gazing into the unknown
Just to feel like we're alone
Weaving our fates into this tapestry that we'll sew

If this is a dream, then please let me sleep
'Cause I just want to keep you right next to me

Like Venusian fires burning endlessly
Further out than I could ever see, you inspire me
If I'm dreaming, please don't wake me from my sleep
'Cause I need you to hold me and to breathe more easily

If I'm the match, then you're the spark
Two particles that never part
We coalesce and it feels
Like there's a fire in my heart
A feeling I've never known
So chaotic, yet so beautiful
Like a furnace in my chest about to explode

Verdant (Verdant) and vibrant (Vibrant)
The colours are saturating you
Even the mountains (Mountains)
Can't take me up as high as you
(And now we're gaining altitude, altitude)

If this is a dream, then please let me sleep
'Cause I just want to keep you right next to me (Right next to me)

Like Venusian fires burning endlessly
Further out than I could ever see, you inspire me
If I'm dreaming, please don't wake me from my sleep
'Cause I need you to hold me and to breathe more easily

Like Venusian fires burning endlessly
Further out than I could ever see, you inspire me

So what do you see when you look in the sky
A planet on fire and satellites?
The verisimilitude of a billion stars lost to time
And what do we see when we look in the eyes
Of certain death and our own demise?
Will we be looking back fondly on our lives?

If this is a dream, please, baby, let's stay asleep
Watching Venusian fires as they burn through the galaxy
Like Venusian fires, from afar I admire
How you shine like a choir, I'm inspired by you

Like Venusian fires burning endlessly
Further out than I could ever see, you inspire me
If I'm dreaming, please don't wake me from my sleep
'Cause I need you to hold me and to breathe more easily
