Meet me in the in-between With frozen lips and gasoline The promise of the day is what you bring It's the strangest thing
Burning brides and idle hands Can't keep us from the things we planned The promise of a song is on the air What it's like to never care
Fall into the song and dance Of holding out for happenstance But I don't wanna take that chance So come and speak to me Sweet surrender on the line Now it's time to say "I'm fine" We'll see each other one more time C'mon and speak to me
Throwin' stones and palindromes Will keep us from the things we own The promise of a life is what we share And will you ever care?
Won't you come and stand with me The one above will set you free The promise of the day you'll see So come and speak to me.
"Burning brides and idle hands" & "The one above will set you free", just to say I love these lines! touchable!

The gasoline symbolizes the start of the flame that we know as love.
