Bright White Flame Lyrics

Come with me to the bright white flame
That you knew by name
And you will again
Take my hand, take my hand

We′re getting out of here
We're getting out of here
No more time for tears
No, no, no
For those wasted years
No more grumbling all night

No more tears on an empty pillow
Voices out of sight
Running hard, running scared
No more tears in the gloom
No more gurus that I just can′t follow

Older than a heartbeat
Older than the sun

If I die before I go
Well this is the way, this is the way
I said if I die before I go
Well this is the way, this is the way
I said if I die before I go
Well this is the way, this is the way

I'm older than a heartbeat
Older than the sun

And those hands, talk about those hands
How she loved those hands
How she could not stand
No, no, no
To be near that man
So she turned, so she turned, she turned, she turned
To the bright white flame, to the bright white flame
That she knew by name, no, no, no
There'd be no pain

No more grumbling all night
No more tears on an empty pillow
Voices out of sight
Running hard, running scared
No more tears in the gloom
No more gurus that I just can′t follow

Older than a heartbeat
Older than the sun

If I die before I go
Well this is the way, this is the way
I said if I die before I go
Well this is the way, this is the way
I said if I die before I go
Well this is the way, this is the way

I′m older than a heartbeat
Older than the sun

Now if I die before I go
Well this is the way, this is the way
I said if I die before I go
Well this is the way, this is the way
I said if I die before I go
This is the way, this is the way

I said I'm older than a heartbeat
Older than the sun

I am a river that goes on and on
Carries you into the sea
Carry you away from here
You can be free
