Lamplight

Slow-burnin' orb, steady-lit flame
Distance is safest but still burns the same
Thousands of miles
Hell-bent to roam
But I’ll leave the lamplight burnin' 'til you make it home
Chill of the nighttime, white-line insane
Got enough warmth and no one to blame
Hundreds of times
the floor
But I’ll leave the lamplight burnin' 'til you lock the door
Lay down beside me, let me undress your burdens
Just rest your mind, boy, 'cause I know you’ve been hurtin'
No, it won’t make you weaker, I know you’ll never fall
Just as the flame from my slow-burnin' lamplight will never grow cold
Time is a healer, patience a friend
Comfort is crucial, a means to an end
And love is alive
And I’ll never again
But I’ll leave the lamplight burnin' 'til you let me in
Lay down beside me, let me undress your burdens
Just rest your mind, boy, 'cause I know you’ve been hurtin'
No, it won’t make you weaker, I know you’ll never fall
Just as the flame from my slow-burnin' lamplight will never grow cold
Just as the flame from my slow-burnin' lamplight will never grow cold
