Words In The Fire

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
