[Verse 1]
You were the coal
She was the fire
That warmed your skin
And all within
Memories to hold
Her trembling fingers
Held all they'd known
As she went on
[Chorus]
Oh, sweet orchard
Shade the growing light
Holding softly to my weary eyes
[Verse 2]
Thousands of all
Hunger inside
These withering eyes
Too tired to cry
A face, hiding so silently
Burns to know
The love that grows here
[Chorus]
Oh, sweet orchard
Let forgiving strands of light
Break my silence
Burn the night
Oh, sweet waters
Flow with love for me inside
Cast me quietly unto morning's light
[Outro]
Oh, burn through the night, burn
Oh, love burn through the night
