I Would Burn The Night For You (But I Won't Cross That Line)

In the silence of the midnight

With the shadows on the wall

I can hear your heartbeat calling

Like a siren through it all

I would race across the desert

With the lightning in my veins

I would climb the highest mountains

Just to whisper out your name

I would shatter every mirror

If it meant you'd see me true

I would fight against the darkness

Just to stand alone with you

But every promise has a border

Every fire has a flame

And every hero has a moment

When he draws a line in pain

I would burn the night for you

Turn the black sky into blue

I would face the storm and never run

Till the battle's won

I would give my soul to you

Let the world come crashing through

But there's one thing I'll never do

There's one line I won't go through

I would tear apart the heavens

If your tears began to fall

I would build a bridge of thunder

If you feared the final call

I would carry all your sorrow

Through the cold and endless rain

I would stand against tomorrow

Just to take away your pain

But every vow can feel like chains

If it breaks what makes us whole

And every love can lose its meaning

If it costs your very soul

I would burn the night for you

Turn the black sky into blue

I would face the storm and never run

Till the battle's won

I would give my soul to you

Let the world come crashing through

But there's one thing I'll never do

There's one line I won't go through

If the dawn should ever find us

Standing on the edge of time

Would you ask me for tomorrow

Or demand this heart of mine

Would you trade the truth for glory

Would you trade the light for fame

Would you ask me to surrender

Everything that made me sane

I would burn the night for you

Till the stars were falling down

Would you still be standing strong

If the world turned upside down

I would cross the seas for you

I would wear your crown of fire

But would you betray your heart

Just to feed a wild desire

I would burn the night for you

Turn the dark into the dawn

But I won't betray the truth

Even if you're gone

I would give my soul to you

Till the end of all we knew

But there's one thing I won't undo

There's one line I won't go through

Through the thunder

Through the flame

Love will rise

But not in shame
