Put your words into the fire Watch them burn your heart's desire Rise up in the air In a cloud of silk and smoke and dust Fade into the night It's a comforting feeling with you at my side
Let me shake your honest hands And I'll sit down beside you now Lean our heavy heads Of the weight of the things that are left unsaid Don't worry about it now 'Cause in the morning they will all just be ashes on the ground
So what's been on your mind Eating you inside Taking all of your time On this warm summer night Put your words down in the fire
When we were down at sandy beach Old man talking in young man's words Tell me where you would like to be Tonight don't be afraid to dream Lean on the fire for a while Cause in the morning it will all just be ashes on the ground
So what's been on your mind Eating you inside Taking all of your time On this warm summer night Put those words down in the fire
