When the waves are eroding the sands of time
When the blackbird who is hurt is the cause of all crime
As we know from crying, there is no justice when pain is free
I don’t care for the fog if I can’t even see

Ooh oh Ooh oh
While the cold air crawls towards the fire
I am wanting to hold you
While the hope is draining from my brain
I drink to love and I’m lit ablaze, lit ablaze

Has the coming of fall made dead every leaf
Would the shadow of my song cause you the grief
You so wish to pass
When the water gets warm I won’t be holding back

Ooh Oh Ooh Oh
While the cold air crawls towards the fire
I am wanting to hold you
While the hope is draining from my brain
I drink to love and I’m lit ablaze, lit ablaze

(solo)

While the cold air crawls towards the fire
I am wanting to hold you
While the hope is draining from my brain
I drink to love and I’m lit ablaze, lit ablaze
