Put your words into the fire
|
Watch them burn your heart's desire
|
Rise up in the air
|
In a cloud of silk and smoke and dust
|
Fade into the night
|
It's a comforting feeling with you at my side
|
|
Let me shake your honest hands
|
And I'll sit down beside you now
|
Lean our heavy heads
|
Of the weight of the things that are left unsaid
|
Don't worry about it now
|
'Cause in the morning they will all just be ashes on the ground
|
|
So what's been on your mind
|
Eating you inside
|
Taking all of your time
|
On this warm summer night
|
Put your words down in the fire
|
|
When we were down at sandy beach
|
Old man talking in young man's words
|
Tell me where you would like to be
|
Tonight don't be afraid to dream
|
Lean on the fire for a while
|
Cause in the morning it will all just be ashes on the ground
|
|
So what's been on your mind
|
Eating you inside
|
Taking all of your time
|
On this warm summer night
|
Put those words down in the fire
|
