isn't it strange

How we move our lives for another day

Like skipping a beat

What if a great wave should

Wash us all away

Just thinking out loud

Don't mean to dwell on this dying thing

But looking at blood

It's alive right now

Deep and sweet within

Pouring through our veins

Intoxicate moving wine to tears

Drinking it deep

Then an evening spent dancing

It's you and me

This love will open our world

From the dark side you can see a glow

Of something bright

There's much more than we see here

Don't burn the day away



Is this not enough

The blessed sip of life

Is it not enough

Staring down at the ground

Oh then complain and pray

More from above

Greedy little pig

Stop just watch your world trickle away

Oh it's your problem now

It'll all be dead and gone in

A few short years

Just love will open our eyes

Just love will put the hope back in our minds

Much more than we could ever know

Don't burn the day away



Come sister

My brother

Shake up your bones shake up your feet

I'm saying open up

And let the rain come pouring in

Wash out this tired notion

That the best is yet to come

But while you're dancing on the ground

Don't think of when you're gone

Love! love! - what more is there?

We need the light of love in here

Don't beat your head

Dry your eyes

Let the love in there

There are bad times

But that's ok

Just look for love in it

Don't burn the day away



Look

Here are we

On this starry night staring into space

And i must say

I feel as small as dust

Lying down here

What point could there be troubling

Head down wondering what will

Become of me

Why concern we cannot see

But no reason to abandon it

Time is short but that's all right

Maybe i'll go out in the middle of the night

Take your hands from your eyes, my love

Everything must come to an end sometime

Don't burn the day away



Come sister

My brother

Shake up your bones shake up your feet

I'm saying open up

And let the rain come flooding in

Wash out this tired notion

That the best is yet to come

But while you're dancing on the ground

Don't think of when you're gone

Love! love! - what more is there?

We need the light of love in here

Don't beat your head

Dry your eyes

Let the love in there

There are bad times

But that's ok

Just look for love in it
