Isn't it strange How we move our lives for another day Like skipping a beat What if a great wave should wash
us all away Just thinking out loud Don't mean to dwell on this dying thing But looking at blood It's alive
right now Deep and sweet within Pouring through our veins Intoxicate moving wine to tears Drinking it deep
Then an evening spent dancing It's you and me This love will open our world From the dark side we can see
the glow of something bright There's much more than we see here Don't burn the day away Don't burn the day Don't
burn the day away
Is this not enough? This blessed sip of life, is it not enough? Staring down at the ground
Oh, then complain and pray for more from above, You greedy little pig, Stop, just watch your world trickle away
Oh, it's your problem now It'll all be dead and gone in a few short years
Oh, just love will open our eyes
Just love will put the hope back in our minds Much more than we could ever know Oh, so don't burn the day away
Don't burn the day away
Oh, come sisters, my brothers, Shake up your bones, shake up your feet, I'm saying,
open up and let the rain come pouring in Wash out this tired notion Oh, that the best is yet to come But oh, while
you're dancing on the ground, Don't think of, oh, when you're gone Love, love, love, what more is there? 'Cause
we need the light of love in here Don't beat your head, dry your eyes, let the love in there, There's bad times but
that's okay, just look for love in there
And don't burn the day away Look, here are we, On this starry night,
staring into space And I must say, I feel as small as dust lying down here
Oh, what point could there be troubling
Head down, wondering, "what will become of me?" Why concern? We cannot see but no reason to abandon it The time
is short, time, that's all right Maybe I'll go out in the middle of the night, And take your hand, look in your eyes,
my love All good things must come to an end sometime
Oh, but don't burn the day away Don't burn the day away
Oh, come sisters, my brothers, Shake up your bones, shake up your feet, I'm saying open up and let the rain
come flooding in Wash out this tired notion That the best is yet to come But, oh, while you're dancing on the
ground Don't think of when you're gone Love, love, love, what more is there? 'Cause we need the light of love
in here Don't beat your head, and dry your eyes, let the love in there The bad times, well that's okay, Let's
just look for love in here, yeah
Just let the love in there, Oh love, light up
