Ed Sheeran - Spark

We've been lost for a long time
In a rut, no escape signs
And for love, we were so blind
Oh, I hate to see you cry
There've been times where the truth lied
Now it's clear as a blue sky

Like a Band-Aid over deeper cuts, we tried
But couldn't stop the fate descending on the night

We'll build a fire
And torch our old life
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling
Light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives
Yeah, we hope the spark survives

Oh, I wonder will we pull through?
All we ever do is argue
With not a lot, but we make do
How I wish you wouldn't say that
There are things you can't take back
When you leave, I always face facts

Like a hand that's trying to hold the water back
We couldn't stop the ocean leaking in the cracks

We'll build a fire
And torch our old life
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling
Light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives
Yeah, we hope the spark survives

We've taken roads (oh, we've taken roads)
That led to confusion
But right now that don't matter at all (nah, nah)
We'll bring it back (yeah, we'll bring it back)
Our love's no illusion
The higher we go, the harder we fall and now

We'll build a fire
And torch our old life
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling
Light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives
Yeah, we hope the spark survives
And we hope the spark survives
