Joe Henry - Flesh and Blood lyrics

Aaaah come sit beside me, That'll do for now The night has come and left me Just the light that you allow. Come speak my name, Fill my head with all such foolish dreams My flesh and blood is no more real to me Than what they seem My love for you is burning Like a sparkle along a fuse, I feel your mark upon me now As surely as the hand that leaves the bruise. Life is for the living And life comes hard for some, The rest of us, with flesh and blood, Make it hard all on our own All I ever wanted Was the freedom to refuse, Or something of my own to love enough To hate to lose. The fever in my brain is leaving Smoke behind my eyes When the part of me that wants to change Fights the part of me that tries Now you see a golden light Because I've turned a gold light on. Sometimes, God knows, you've got to Learn to shine shine shine shine all on your own. I stepped out of darkness And for a moment I'm only living by your kiss, your kiss, your kiss, your kiss, your lips, your kiss, your kiss And now, just for now our flesh and blood Is no more real than this More real than this More real than this More more more more more more more more more more more more real than this Flesh and blood is more real than this More real than this More real than this Flesh and blood Flesh and blood More real than this More real More real than this
