Flickering Flame

Oh, I wanted to see a fire ablaze in my heart A flame not full of smoke

I know Your love is a fire Why am I so cold? My flesh it screams, "You're a liar" Those cries are so old The smoke ascends, the embers dim Just follow its trail Help me I'm so weak and so frail

I'm waiting for a reaction and the motions in between I'm looking for You

Every night I watch and wait as my candle's burning out Every night I scream and shout as my patience turns to doubt Stay with Me, my flickering flame Stay with Me, I know your name Quit your fight, it is in vain When your flame takes flight, it will last the pouring rain

I'm waiting, flame smoking, and fading out I'm fading, withering, will I weather? I'm waiting, sustain me, help me weather I'm fading, flame smoking, flickering and fading out

Oh, I wanted to feel the fire before mine goes out A flame so bright it blinds

I'm waiting for a reaction and the motions in between I'm looking for You, right now

Stay with me flickering flame, I know you're name Every night I'll watch and wait as my candle's burning out Every night I'm filled with doubt I will cry to You and shout
