Lay down by the fire
Watch the flames grow high
It's strange how much we need it
But not let it burn inside
Too long I've been waiting
For better framing for these lines
I know that I've been stumbling
When I could have turned the light
But I've been trying not to lose my own
This world keeps turning even when you fall
We won't get right, we won't get any young
It won't take much to take you back
We're turning to dust And when we see our body fade away
Then we'll be gone But now it's getting late
I could have just kept looking across the same old window
But my shadow plays a silver tune Don't you miss the open winds?
Maybe it's wiser just to call me With a name that's still unclear
Cause fire's only growing When let in the wind
But I've been trying not to fall
behind
This world keeps turning even when you hide
But we won't get right,
we won't get any young It won't take much to take me back
to dust
And when we see our body fade away
Then we'll be gone But now it's getting late
I know you have stars shining through the window pane
It's more than I could ever wish
Something's just far enough now
More than I can hold within Something needs a laugh,
something needs a say
And while you take another breath No,
I don't need a why or where
To tell you when it's all been said
We'll give ourselves back to the air
We'll give ourselves back to the air
We'll give ourselves back to the air
