This song is based on a famous haiku by Mizuta Masahide.
barn's burnt down-
now
I can see the moon.
lyrics
Trial By Fire
Since the fire improved the view from our room
We lay up there all night and marvel at the moon
You’re my sweetheart and my rock in the storm
Leave it to someone like you
At a time like this to notice the moon
Teach me that knot again, tied when we wed
The rope has held securely, I’m forever in your debt
Your crooked smile is my anchor in this life
With laughing eyes and all
When I asked you to be my wife
All it takes is a spark and you’ve got trial by fire
One little spark and it’s trial by fire
Just a little spark, just one little spark
One little spark and it’s trial by fire
