Jeremiah

Sara Groves · Other Side of Something [2004]

Jeremiah tell me about the fire

That burns up in your bones

I want to know

I want to know more now



The burning of ambition and desire

It never could come close

To that fire

To that fire



Verse 1:

I was looking to myself

And I forgot the power of God

I was standing with a sparkler in my hand



While I stood so proud and profound

You went and burned the whole place down

Now that's a fire



Verse 2:

I was caught up in this vice

And it's power to entice

I was dwelling on my hopelessness and doubt



With the slightest invitation

You came with total detonation

Now that's a fire



Bridge:

I was warming my hands by this little light of mine

but now I know it's time

time to come in from the cold

Fight fire with fire, come fan the flame

come stir up these coals in my soul, in my soul

till it burns out of control
