Burn To Shine

Ben Harper

We made love until we cried and cried ourselves to laughter
Laughed until we realize our hearts were struck with fear
How in just a moments time could one see forever after?
I gently lie beside you and dream away my tearsWon'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 shineFunny 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 stillBut 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 goneWon'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 shineI'd like to spend the time with you, would you like to spend with me?
So that you could help me out with my dependency
'Cause I'm hopelessly addicted, addicted to your sorrow
Makes me never wanna work, beg or borrowWon'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 shineWon'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
