Would That I

True that I saw her hair like

The branch of a tree

Willow dancin' on air before covering me

Under garden and calicos

Over canopy dabbled long ago

True that love in withdrawal

Was the weepin' of me

That the sound of the

Saw must be known by the tree

Must be felt 'fore the fight, the call

Friendly fire, but that was long ago

But that's not tonight (Oh, oh)

When I'm set alight (Oh, oh)

And I blink inside (Oh, oh)

Your blinding light (Oh, oh)

Oh, that's not tonight (Oh, oh)

When you hold me tight (Oh, oh)

All the fire bright (Oh, oh)

Oh, let it blaze alright (Oh, oh)

Oh, hope that you're good to me

Oh, you're good to me (Oh, oh)

Hope that you're good to me, baby (Oh, oh)

With the war of the fire

My heart moves to its feet

Like the ashes of ash

I saw eyes in the heat

Feel it soft and as pure as snow

Fell in love with the fire long ago

With each love I could lose

I was never the same

Watch it still live in roofs

Be consumed by the flame

I was fixed on your hand of gold

Lay in waste of my lovin' long ago

That's not tonight (Oh, oh)

I'm set alight (Oh, oh)

And I blink inside (Oh, oh)

Your blinding light (Oh, oh)

Oh, that's not tonight (Oh, oh)

You hold me tight (Oh, oh)

All the fire bright (Oh, oh)

Oh, let it blaze alright, honey (Oh, oh)

Oh, hope that you're good to me

Oh, you're good to me (Oh, oh)

Hope that you're good to me, baby (Oh, oh)

So in awe there I stood as you

Licked off the grain

Though I've handled the wood

I still worship the flame

Long as amber of ember glows

All the wood that I'd loved is long ago

And it's not tonight (Oh, oh)

When I'm set alight (Oh, oh)

And I blink inside (Oh, oh)

Oh, your blinding light (Oh, oh)

Oh, that's not tonight (Oh, oh)

When you hold me tight (Oh, oh)

All the fire bright (Oh, oh)

Oh, let it blaze alright (Oh, oh)

Hope you're good to me

Hope you're good to me (Oh, oh)

Hope that you're good to me

Baby (Oh, oh)

Oh, oh, you're good to me

You're good to me (Oh, oh)

Hope that you're good to me, baby (Oh, oh)
