The Flame And The Moth Lyrics


Orleans The Flame And The Moth

Once in a while, it crosses my mind
That love in this world is so hard to find
It may seem to you that I should be satisfied
To take what I've got and hold this, hold this inside

I've often been told what money can buy
But love can't be sold, the price is too high
You may take my body, wrap me in chains
Love in my heart always, always remains

But I can't see the light if my eyes are not open
And I know it ain't right, the road that's been taken
But we're all here together and there's just no way off
If you're blinded by the glitter like the flame (Yeah)
Flame blinds the moth
Ooh

Springtime is fine for planting the seeds
In summer, life grows, troubled by weeds
The autumn grows cool and everyone soon learns
That wintertime's fool, the frost, frost quickly burns

But I can't see the light if my eyes are not open
And I know it ain't right, the road that's been taken
But we're all here together and there's just no way off
If you're blinded by the glitter like the flame (Yeah)
Flame blinds the moth

But I can't see the light if my eyes are not open
And I know it ain't right, the road that's been taken
But we're all here together and there's just no way off
If you're blinded by the glitter like the flame (Yeah)
Flame blinds the moth
