Lyrics

You've got troubles on your mind
Keeps you away from me
There's no sense in denying
And I've cursed myself for the longest time
And now I find I just don't mind

Leave your coat beside the door
Come and lay here
On this blanket on the floor
And we'll throw our candles
In the flames tonight
Set it right try to set it right

(Chorus)
When all our tears coming down are gone
And I shed my skin before this evening's done
If we never get the chance
To come back here again
I'll understand you know I'll understand
You know I'll understand

All the spirits of the night
Watch us sleeping here
Beside the firelight
And I'll hold my tongue
Till this moment's gone
Kiss the dawn
Stay to kiss the dawn

(Chorus)
