Fireworks Songtext
I've had my skin turned so red
But I still stand in the sun
Yeah, I've been stabbed in the back by my friends
But I still make new ones
I've almost drowned, waves knocked me down
But I still love the ocean
So, why would I hold back my heart
Just 'cause it's been broken

Since I first saw you that night on those stairs
Middle of a party, just you and me there
Suddenly I forgot all of the times I've been hurt
And damn, I've been hurt
Now, looking back, I don't know what I'd do
If I'd blamed my past and I'd missed out on you
I hope that I never learn
'Cause even though I've been burned
I still love fireworks

I've felt those sparks
In so many dive bars
But what they want is all the same
I've even driven
A boy home for Christmas
We died like the tree before Valentine's Day
But I'll still take you home to Oklahoma anyway

Since I first saw you that night on those stairs
Middle of a party, just you and me there
Suddenly I forgot all of the times I've been hurt
And damn, I've been hurt
Now, looking back, I don't know what I'd do
If I'd blamed my past and I'd missed out on you
I hope that I never learn
'Cause even though I've been burned
I still love fireworks

So, light me up
Light me up
Light me up
I'll never let you go

Since I first saw you that night on those stairs
Middle of a party, just you and me there
Suddenly I forgot all of the times I've been hurt
Damn, I've been hurt
Now, looking back, I don't know what I'd do
If I'd blamed my past and I'd missed out on you
I hope that I never learn
'Cause even though I've been burned
I still love fireworks
