Time to burn[00:00:13]
We could talk all the problems through[00:00:16]
Are the promises still unbroken[00:00:20]
Do the spoken words still ring true[00:00:25]
Oh[00:00:30]
And where are you[00:00:30]
Time to burn[00:00:34]
Wakes and weddings[00:00:37]
Celestial choirs[00:00:39]
And while one hand shakes on the bargain[00:00:42]
See the other stoke the suttee pyre[00:00:46]
So we're all on fire[00:00:51]
Burning for tomorrow[00:00:56]
So much time wish and hoping[00:01:01]
Soon the future will come[00:01:05]
With a bridal wreath for the wedding[00:01:09]
In the hands of the prodigal son[00:01:13]
So much left undone[00:01:18]
Here we are with time to burn[00:01:23]
So much time wishful thinking[00:01:48]
All the whitest of lies[00:01:53]
With the prodigal caught at the border[00:01:57]
And the order of service awry[00:02:02]
No time for goodbyes[00:02:06]
Will we ever start to learn[00:02:11]
Time to burn[00:02:25]
Wakes and weddings become confused[00:02:27]
All the faces overfamiliar[00:02:32]
In the whirlwind of dejavu[00:02:36]
Oh[00:02:41]
But where are you[00:02:42]
Time to burn[00:02:50]
All our lifelines are gathered round[00:02:53]
With a speech from the back of a postcard[00:02:57]
All the memories free in one bound[00:03:02]
Free[00:03:07]
And gone to ground[00:03:08]
Free[00:03:12]
And gone forever[00:03:12]
Free[00:03:16]
And gone to ground[00:03:17]
So I will remember[00:03:21]
So much lost and found[00:03:25]
Here we are with time to burn[00:03:30]
