Slow Dancer Lyrics
She watched the valley burn
Like a slow dancer doing turns
My name was on every tongue
And all of the smoke and ash
like a memory of the time gone bad
Hanging like a shadow
So light it up again
Burn like a holy fire
Light me up again
if it makes you feel free
Light me again
Call me a snake and a liar
And I will be the fire that keeps you warm
Matches to gasoline
I could not keep my fingers clean
Enough for your gunpowder heart
And as I lit for the fuse
And ran for cover, where were you
Standing with your hands on the flames
So light it up again
Burn like a holy fire
Light me up again
if it makes you feel free
Light me again
Call me a snake and a liar
And I will be the fire that keeps you warm
Light it up again
Burn like a holy fire
light me up again
If it makes you feel free
Light me up again
Call me a snake and a liar
I will be the fire that keeps you warm
I will be the fire that keeps you warm
Like a slow dancer doing turns
My name was on every tongue
like a memory of the time gone bad
Hanging like a shadow
Burn like a holy fire
Light me up again
if it makes you feel free
Light me again
Call me a snake and a liar
And I will be the fire that keeps you warm
I could not keep my fingers clean
Enough for your gunpowder heart
And as I lit for the fuse
And ran for cover, where were you
Standing with your hands on the flames
Burn like a holy fire
Light me up again
if it makes you feel free
Light me again
Call me a snake and a liar
And I will be the fire that keeps you warm
Burn like a holy fire
light me up again
If it makes you feel free
Light me up again
Call me a snake and a liar
I will be the fire that keeps you warm
I will be the fire that keeps you warm

This is an excerpt from an interview Noah did:
"In short, it's a breakup song. The idea is that sometimes people need to express their anger or frustration as a process of healing. I guess my character in that song is saying, "That's okay. If you need to be angry at me and that's going to make things better for you, then by all means express that anger.""
