Firecracker Lyrics - Trampoline - Steel Train

Firecracker, you waved in the night 

And something that I saw was a-flaming 

Your body, it was real in the light 

On the fourth of July we were screaming 

Well, I saw the lonely road 

You left and said to me, don't follow 

Cause I'll only bring you sorrow 

And on down my lonely road 

You left and I just said, no, no, no, no, no 

All I said, no, no, no, no, no 

Well, I'm back in my old town again 

Is there something still alive that I left here 

Do you still like the boys on the street? 

I will take you uptown just to see you meet them 

Well, I saw the lonely road 

You left and said to me, don't follow 

Cause I'll only bring you sorrow 

And on down my lonely road 

You left and I just said, no, no, no, no, no 

All I said, no, no, no, no, no 

You know I've been reading the Bible for a change 

Maybe there's something I had missed there 

I said, I've seen or I've seen some eyes in the rain 

And they creep at my mind and I saw you whisper 

But firecracker, you waved in the night 

Something that I saw was a-flaming 

Do you feel like we left something here? 

Something worth coming back and claiming 

Well, I saw the lonely road 

You left and said to me, don't follow 

Cause I'll only bring you sorrow 

And on down my lonely road 

You left and said to me, don't follow 

You sleep and dream for tomorrow 

And in the deadly night 

You left and said to me, don't follow 

'Cause I'll only bring you sorrow 

And on down my lonely road 

You left and I just said, no, no, no, no, no 

Well, I said, no, no, no, no, no
