lyrics

Torch

You’re the light
My old flame
You’re the song’s sweet refrain
Rake the coals, and I’ll sing
down the dark of our days

When the dark
Enfolds us all
& I can’t see the start
& I can’t strike a spark

You house light, from the rain
rouse the ash, teach the flame
to do its own kindling
with your breath in its veins

When the dark
Enfolds us all
& I can’t see the start
& I can’t strike a spark
you’re my torch...

in the last light of day
when the fire sleeps in rain
when all souls, stain the gray
I’ll lift you up again
