Set The Prairie On Fire Lyrics

 Full full moon and
 That same sad nature
 I wanna cover every inch of you
 Like ink on paper
Like the blind parade of souls
 Consumed by religion
I can't wait 'til I get you 
 In that defenseless position

Chorus:
When we set the prairie on fire
 Oh we go down to the water
 Naked and slow
 You and me
 And the heart of desire
We set the prairie on fire
 How hard will the wind blow
 How far will it go

When the feeling burns down
To one solitary color
 The velocity of longing
 Melting into each other
It's a song our fingers play
All at once and together
 You can bet we never learned it
 But we've known it forever

 Oh I dreamed that we were flying
Carried up from the ashes
Black silhouettes of velvet
Against the crimson of passion
We can almost hear the echoes
>From the smoldering meadow
 It's the rapture of the angels
And the rage of the devil

Chorus 

In the cool dusk of horses
 Through the rusted wires of sleep
With our arms around midnight
We're headed for release
We go riding in the wind
We go riding in the dark
 Go riding, riding

Chorus
