Burn To Shine

We made love until we cried and cried ourselves to laughter

Laughed until we realised our hearts were struck with fear

How in just a moment's time could one see forever after

I gently lie beside of you and dream away my tears



Won't you let me treat you kind

We're gonna burn to shine

Won't you let me treat you kind

We're gonna burn to shine



Funny things you learn from your mama,

like the way to throw your head back when your swallowing pills

Funny things you learn from your papa,

like when you're talking you just can't keep your hands still



But that was now and this is then

It never lasts for long

How I miss the good old days, but I'm so glad they're gone



Won't you let me treat you kind

We're gonna burn to shine

Won't you let me treat you kind

We're gonna burn to shine



I'd like to spend the time that you would like to spend with me

So you could help me out with my dependency

'Cause I'm hopelessly addicted, addicted to your sorrow

Makes me never wanna work, only beg or borrow



Won't you let me treat you kind

We're gonna burn to shine

Won't you let me treat you kind

We're gonna burn to shine

Won't you let me treat you kind

We're gonna burn to shine

Won't you let, me, treat you kind

B-b-b-burn to shine
