about

a little tune about the hardships of love and how hard it is to light those little restaurant-size matches

lyrics

Matchmakers, matchmakers,
matchmakers, match
the kind that we make
are the kind you won’t touch
Fires, start fires
we burn up the bunch,
and if you’re afraid then,
you’re out of luck

matchmakers, matchmakers,
who said love was easy?
fire in the heart,
and internally bleeding
matchmakers, matchmakers,
ignite the flames
if you’re afraid then
don’t do the same

the cowards live alone
the cowards live alone
the cowards live alone
in their safe, matchbox homes

matchmakers, matchmakers,
have too much fun,
with these dinky little matches
that burn up your thumbs
we don’t make it easy
we don’t make it fair,
you’ll go through some matches
before you get there

it’s easy to light it
that's the better part
but keeping a fire
now that is an art
