Lyrics

[Verse 1]

This girl has got a smile

That can make me cry

This girl just burns with love

She's burning, burning deep outside

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Night time, night time sets my house on fire

Oh, I'll turn into the melting man

I'll lose my life to feel I feel desire

[Chorus]

Oh, I should feel

Like a polar bear

Like a polar bear

It's impossible

[Verse 2]

She flies outside this cage

Singing girl-mad words

I keep her dark thoughts deep inside

As black as stone and mad as birds

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Burn wild, wild, wild, and never turn away

Oh, sends me all her love, she sends me everything

She sends me everywhere

[Chorus 2]

Oh, I could be

A polar bear

Oh, I could be

A polar bear

It's impossible

[Verse 3]

Try to talk, the sky goes red

I forget, so fill my head

With some of this, some of that

Some of every word she says

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Oh, night time, night time sets my house on fire

I'll turn into the melting man

I'll lose my life to feel I feel desire

[Chorus]

Oh, I should be

A polar bear

Oh, I should be

A polar bear

But it's impossible
