Keep the flame burnin'

Don't let it blow out

We've got no time to start over

We've got no time to rid Sin's plague

We'll just keep hate away

And keep our love the same

Oh, whatever we will do

We gotta keep the flame burnin'

 

I've seen all the flames

Goin' out in the rain

But yours and mine baby

Is driving everyone insane

We've gone through it all

Even drowned in our own tears

And through these ravaged years

We've somehow kept it all going

 

Keep the flame burnin'

Don't let it blow out

We've got no time to start over

We've got no time to rid Sin's plague

We'll just keep hate away

And keep our love the same

Oh, whatever we will do

We gotta keep the flame burnin'

 

I don't understand the reasons

I can't rearrange the seasons

I'm no God, and I don't wanna be

All I need is your company

Let's keep the flame burnin'

 

Many years ago, you started a flame

And ever since then,

I've never quite been the same

It was a long time, before I even knew your name

And ever since then, we've been one in the same

 

Baby, keep the flame burnin'

Don't let it blow out, now!

We've got no time to start over

We've got no time to rid Sin's plague

We'll just keep hate away

And keep our love the same

And whatever we will do

We gotta keep the flame burnin'

I'm slowing down to a crawl

Even though I wanna run

Want to run with you all

I'm back here feeling alone

I've been here a long time now

Waiting all day for tomorrow

Following a dream that waits for me

On a road that's always going

Felt lonesome a long time

And the remedy is at my fingertips

And it won't be the flirt that finds me

For I see none with my eyes

All of those and none of them

Are viewed with these eyes of mine

And knowing of me will never be ours

Until knowing knows itself

When these verse are of your voice

And of a choir are made these rhyme

I've been lonesome for as long as I know

A barren soul houses us all

Though the hue of my vision is distorted

I long for when I meet you outside

This shell can be traveled through

But be wary of what is your method

Gentleness will only do

What we want in the beginning and after

So lonesome for a long time no more
