Lyrics The Proclaimers

The Proclaimers

Like A Flame

I heard the rain

as it skipped and rolled down the pane.

Sleep was almost here

But I stirred from not having you near.

We were apart

for the first time since you'd claimed my heart

I said your name

And I knew we would burn like a flame.

Now twenty years have gone

And I know how much I've done you wrong

I caused you pain

And I know that things can't be the same.

But my love has a name

And it's yours and it burns like a flame.
