Patrick Wolf - The Tinderbox descargar videos gratis

The song is based on the fairy tale 'The Tinderbox' by Hans Christian Andersen

Left right left right

And left right left right

Weary from the wars

I stumble into fortune

Strike a deal with a witch

And cut off her head

With pockets full of gold boy

I journey into town

Trade my scuffed boots

For bribes and burberry

Became the talk of the town

Though the heart remained mute

As I fed the poor

With the king's cutlery

Locked in towers behind walls

Comes some divination

And true love was promised to me

On a black dog

Black burning eyes

Come and carry you here

To my room

Dark to one spark

And I have your heart

But as quick as you come

Always gone so soon soon soon

Gone so soon soon soon

Gone so soon soon soon

Always gone so soon

And now I live alone

In this dirty old attic

And my friends have no strength

To climb up the stairs

So in the dark I spark

This old box of tinder

And your love is ferried to here

On a black dog

Turning eyes

Come and carry you here

To my room

Dark to one spark

And I have your heart

But as quick as you come

You're always gone so soon soon soon

Gone so soon soon soon

Gone so soon soon soon

Always gone so soon

So soon

Why does no flame ere last for long?

Oh no

No spark brights dark for long

Oh no

But no thousand kisses

Or no judas kicking in to stop me

From trying to start the fire

Start the fire

Start the fire, fire, fire, fire,

Fire, fire, fire

Deep down only
