Ed Sheeran - I See Fire Burn Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, misty eye of the mountain below
Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
Keep watching over Durin's sons

[Verse 2]
We, we don't have to worry 'bout nothing
Cause we got the fire, and we're burning one hell of a something
They, they gonna see us from outer space, outer space
Light it up, like we're the stars of the human race, human race

[Chorus ]
When the light started out they don’t know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
(Desolation comes upon the sky)
We'll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky (Desolation comes upon the sky)
Cause we got the fire, fire, fire
Yeah we got the fire, fire, fire
(Now I see fire)
And we gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn (Inside the mountain)
(I see fire)
Gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
Burning the trees
(We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn)
And I see fire
Hollowing souls
I see fire
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me
[Verse 2]
If this is to end in fire
Then we should all burn together
Watch the flames climb high into the night
Calling out father oh
Stand by and we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on
The mountain side

And if we should die tonight (Music's on, I'm waking up, we fight the fire)
Then we should all die together (Then we burn it up
And it's over now, we got the love, there's no sleeping now)
Raise a glass of wine for the last time (no sleeping now, no sleeping)

(When the light started out they don’t know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
Cause we got the fire, fire, fire
Yeah we got the fire, fire, fire)

Calling out father oh
Prepare as we will (When the light started out they don’t know what they heard)
Watch the flames burn auburn on (Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world)
The mountain side (Cause we got the fire, fire, fire)
Desolation comes upon the sky Yeah we got the fire, fire, fire)

Now I see fire Inside the mountain (And we gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
I see fire (We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn)
Burning the trees (Gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn)
And I see fire
Hollowing souls
I see fire
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me

[Bridge 1]
And if the night is burning
I will cover my eyes
For if the dark returns
Then my brothers will die
And as the sky is falling down
It crashed into this lonely town
And with that shadow upon the ground
I hear my people screaming out

[bridge 2]
We can light it up, up, up
So they can't put it out, out, out
We can light it up, up, up
So they can't put it out, out, out
We can light it up, up, up
So they can't put it out, out, out
We can light it up, up, up
So they can't put it out, out, out
[Outro]
I see fire (oh you know I saw a city burning out)
Inside the mountains
And I see fire (feel the heat upon my skin, yeah)
Burning the trees
And I see fire (uh-uh-uh-uh) (fire)
And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side

Cause we got the fire, fire, fire
Yeah we got the fire, fire, fire
