Burn to shine lyrics

Artist  : Ben harper 
Song : Burn to shine
 
We made love until we cried 
And cried ourselves to laughter 
Laughed until we realise our hearts were struck
were fear 
How in just a moments time 
Could one see for ever after 
I gently lie beside of you 
And dream away with my tears 

Won't you let me treat you kind 
We're gonna burn to shine 
Won't you let me treat you kind 
We're gonna burn to shine 

Funny things you learn from your mama 
Like the way you throw your head back when
swallowing pills 
Funny things you learn from your papa 
like when you're talking you just can't keep your
hands still 
But that was now and this is then 
 
It never lasts for long 
How I miss the good old days but I'm so glad
they're gone 

Won't you let me treat you kind 
We're gonna burn to shine 
Won't you let me treat you kind 
We're gonna burn to shine 

I'd like to spend the time that you would like to
spend with me 
So you could help me out with my dependancy 
'Cause I'm hoplessly 
addicted addicted to your sorrow 
Makes me never wanna work, beg or borrow 

Won't you let me treat you kind 
We're gonna burn to shine 
Won't you let me treat you kind 
We're gonna burn to shine
