Ben Harper - Burn To Shine lyrics

We made love until we cried and cried ourselves to laughter Laughed until we realise our hearts were struck were fear How in just a moments time could one see for ever after I gently lie beside of you and dream away my tears Won'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 Funny 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 still But 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 gone Won'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 I'd like to spend the time that you would like to spend with me So that you could help me out with my dependancy 'Cause I'm hoplessly addicted, addicted to your sorrow Makes me never wanna work, beg or borrow Won'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
