Song On Fire Lyrics - Nickelback

The first words that come out 

And I can see this song will be about you 

I can't believe that I can breathe without you 

But all I need to do is carry on 

The next line I write down 

And there's a tear that falls between the pages 

I know that pain's supposed to heal in stages 

But it depends which one I'm standing on 

I write lines down, then rip them up 

Describing love can't be this tough 

I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke 

I could throw it in the river and watch it sink in slowly 

Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon 

Play it for the world, but it won't mean much 

Unless I sing this song to you 

I'm dying to show you 

This could end happily ever after 

There doesn't ever have to be disaster 

And all you have to do is sing along 

I write lines down, then rip them up 

Impossible describing love 

I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke 

I could throw it in the river and watch it sink in slowly 

Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon 

Play it for the world, but it won't mean much 

Unless I sing this song to you 

I could set this song on fire 

Sing this song to you 

I could set this song on fire 

Light this old guitar on fire, I'd still hear the notes 

Drown the melody in water, I'd still hear its ghost 

Sing it with somebody else, but we'd be out of tune 

Play it for the world, but it won't mean much 

I could set this song on fire, send it up in smoke 

I could throw it in the river and watch it sink in slowly 

Tie the pages to a plane and send it to the moon 

Play it for the world, but it won't mean much 

Unless I sing this song to you 

I could set this song on fire 

Unless I sing this song to you 

I could set this, I could set this 

I want to sing this song to you 

I could set this song on fire 

Sing this song to you 

I could set this, I could set this
