Fireworks

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've had my skin turn so red But I still stand in the sun Yeah, I've been stabbed in the back by my friends But I still make new ones I've almost drowned, waves knocked me down But I still love the ocean So why would I hold back my heart Just 'cause it's been broken [Chorus] Since I first saw you that night on those stairs In the middle of a party, just you and me there Suddenly I forgot all of the times I've been hurt And damn, I've been hurt Now lookin' back I don't know what I'd do If I blamed my past and I missed out on you I hope that I never learn 'Cause even though I've been burned I still love fireworks [Verse 2] I've felt those sparks in so many dive bars But what they want is all the same I've even drive a boy home for Christmas We died like a tree before Valentine's Day But I'll still take you home to Oklahoma anyway [Chorus] Since I first saw you that night on those stairs In the middle of a party, just you and me there Suddenly I forgot all of the times I've been hurt And damn, I've been hurt Now lookin' back I don't know what I'd do If I blamed my past and I missed out on you I hope that I never learn 'Cause even though I've been burned I still love fireworks [Bridge] So light me up, oh-oh, oh, oh Light me up, oh-oh, oh, oh Light me up, oh-oh, oh, oh I'll never let you go [Chorus] Since I first saw you that night on those stairs In the middle of a party, just you and me there Suddenly I forgot all of the times I've been hurt And damn I've been hurt Now lookin' back I don't know what I'd do If I blamed my past and I missed out on you I hope that I never learn 'Cause even though I've been burned I still love fireworks
