The Moth And The Flame

"The Moth And The Flame"
2010

Your friends say I am a moth
Well then these are my wings
And I'm invading the sky
To feel the joy that it brings
But this flight that I fly
Will help me to see
That inside of the clouds
Is not where I should be
'Cause if I am a moth
Then you are the flame
And if there's light in my eyes
Then you are to blame
So don't question desire
When you know I'd die to be here
Because your love is the fire
That I would die to be near
They say the sky's not as blue
When viewed from below
But when you're on the ground
You don't notice the show
Each time the selfish night
Stalks an unsuspecting day
But I don't have to worry love
'Cause I know you will light my way
Since I'm a moth
And you are the flame
And if there's light in my eyes
Then you are to blame
And don't question desire
When you know I'd die to be here
Because your love is the fire
That I would die to be near
But if I get too close
My wings would surely melt
But that pain would not compare
To the loneliness I've felt
Each and every day
Before you looked my way
So you can turn these wings to ash
But I'd still be here to stay
'Cause within these flames I feel
I feel so much alive
And I feel the way
I've been so long denied
So may your friends feel free
To think their worst
But before the morning comes
I'll say to you first
Darling, you can have me,
And you can take me
But if this is a dream
Please don't wake me
'Cause you can love me
Your flame can burn me
But please I beg you
To never turn me
Don't ever turn me loose...
'Cause if I am a moth
Then you are the flame
And if there's light in my eyes
Then you are to blame
So don't question desire
When you know I'd die to be here
Because your love is the fire
That I would die to be near...
