Torches Lyrics

Dark of the morning
It comes without a warning
It comes without a warning to you

It sweeps through the city
And longs to be pretty
But lives in the swamp all alone

We're riding on our horses
Our hands full of torches
We're making it safe for you now

We'll sing it in a loud round
A hymn for the school ground
Come over red rover you're through

Not safe from the lure
Not safe from ourselves
It longs to be warm
It longs to be held

Dark of the morning
It comes without a warning
It comes without a warning to you

It sweeps through the city
And longs to be pretty
But lives in the swamp all alone

We're riding on our horses
Our hands full of torches
We're making it safe for you now

We'll sing it in a loud round
A hymn for the school ground
Come over red rover you're through

Not safe from the lure
Not safe from ourselves
It longs to be warm
It longs to be held

It's not safe
It's not safe
It's not safe
And you run and you run and you run
