Johnny Flynn - Jefferson’s Torch

Tekst piosenki:


[Transcribing]
I am born in the reeds, I'm an idea of magnitude
Giving birth to itself ad infinitum
I am Jefferson's torch in a bright, stellar majesty

[Chorus]
Oh I'm burning, oh I'm burning, oh I'm burning
Yes I'm burning, oh I'm burning, yes I'm burning for thee

[Verse 2]
We were measured in the dark by timetabled tragedy
There's a real turn of age in disaster
Now I'm firing a well our politicians gave to ruin

[Chorus]
'Till I'm burning, oh I'm burning, yes I'm burning
Oh I'm burning, oh I'm burning, yes I'm burning for thee

[Bridge]
River run run run run run run run river through me
Through the mud mud mud mud mud
Let me feel, let me feel, let me feel you

[Chorus]
Oh I'm burning, oh I'm burning, oh I'm burning
Yes I'm burning, oh I'm burning, oh I'm burning for thee

[Bridge]
River run run run run run run run river through me
Through the mud mud mud mud mud
Let me feel, let me feel, let me feel you

[Verse 3]
Now come out from your cups, find your love in the doorways
Have a care to fill the vessel of your heart
Hold me tight through the storms
And the winds of revolution

[Chorus]
And always burning, oh he's burning, oh he's burning
Oh he's burning, yes he's burning, oh he's burning
Oh he's burning, yes he's burning, oh he's burning for thee
