FLAME

FLAME

ITS GETTING DARK I CAN'T SEE

A BEAUTIFUL DREAM

SCATTERS IN BITS OF LIGHT

WASN'T I SUPPOSED TO SEE

SO MUCH A PART

HOW COULD THAT BE

JUST GONE ALL AT ONCE LIKE THAT

SOON AS IT FADES AWAY

LEAVES ALL THE CHOICE WORDS

I JUST HAVE TO SAY

I KNOW THERE'S TOMORROW

NO SENSE IN LIVING

IN YESTERDAYS SORROW

NO TIME TO STOP FOR THE RAIN

EACH DAY BLENDS INTO THE NEXT

KIND OF WHAT I EXPECTED

SELF ELECTED

TO CARRY THE FLAME

BURY THE STONE OF BURDEN

FREE AND LIGHT TO GO

TO BE, TO SEE THE WAY FROM HERE

STEAL AWAY JUST RIDE THE WIND

TO SOMETHING NEW

YOU CAN SHAKE ME TO MY VERY CORE

BUT I WON'T CHANGE MY DIRECTION

LOOKING GLASS

THAT'S NOT MY REFLECTION

I CAN'T STAND STILL

I CAN'T STAY TO GET MY FILL

UNTIL I TRULY FEEL

THERE'S NO MORE WISHING

FOR ANYMORE THAN TOMORROW

COMING STEAL AWAY

TO SOMETHING NEW

THAT KIND OF SOMETHING NEW

LET ME PLAY IN THE SUN

RUN IN THE SAND

INTO THE SEA

TWO HEARTS A HARMONY

TASTE THE SALT WHEN I KISS YOUR HAND

WHEN IT ALL COMES TOGETHER

JUST AS WE PLANNED

WHEN WE ARE THERE

THERE'S NO MORE UNCERTAINTY

NO DESPAIR

ALL THE TIME TO REPAIR

ALL ON THE RIGHT SIDE

SOMETHING NEW TO FEEL TO FILL
