Midsummer Fires Lyrics - Singles - Blood Ruby

MIDSUMMER FIRES 

Midnight midsummer 

Sun won't leave the sky 

Here's a fire for the burning 

A light to lead the turning 

The turning of the sun 

Down the season's slide 

The burning of the sun 

That keeps us all alive 

The turning of the sun 

Down the season's slide 

Toward the harvesting of grain 

And the long white time 

Midsummer fires burn 

In my heart 

Midsummer fires burn 

Midsummer fires burn 

In my heart 

Midsummer fires burn 

Midnight midsummer 

Flames scrape through the sky 

Watch them catch 

On the horizon 

Watch them rise 

Higher and wilder 

In the shadows 

Of the flickering folds 

The embers fill the dusk 

With their rust and gold 

In the shadows 

Of the flickering folds 

Forge a purified world 

Out of the old 

Midsummer fires burn 

In my heart 

Midsummer fires burn 

Midsummer fires burn 

In my heart 

Midsummer fires burn 

Midnight midsummer 

Sun won't leave the sky 

Here's a fire for the burning 

A light to lead the turning 

Stakes and twigs 

And garlands green 

Midsummer fires burn 

Birch and blossom 

Moss and leaves 

Midsummer fires burn 

Copper coins 

Old boats and barrels 

Midsummer fires burn 

Climb right up the 

Witch's ladder 

Midsummer fires burn 

Midsummer fires 

Midsummer fires 

Midsummer fires burn 

Build it up 

With bricks and beams 

Midsummer fires burn 

Douse it all 

With gasoline 

Midsummer fires burn 

Midsummer fires 

Midsummer fires 

Midsummer fires burn 

Keep feeding me 

Keep feeding me 

Till all I can see 

It's all I can see 

Lyrics 2004 Cynthia Conrad
