Paroles de Slow Motion

Bonfires on the beach Coming through the ashes You're one with the colors As the water crashes When I came up for air I saw our life from up there We were moving in slow motion You took the weight off of my back Carried the burden for me Shifted the winds to the west Put your warmth around me What did I give you in return? A thousand letters to burn I was cruel as life can be Still life in the wind Painted in my mind The sea stopped moving Changed overnight When I think about it now It seems clear and coursed out But the winding road ahead Was daunting You, you, you Took the weight off of my back And you carried the burden for me Shifted the winds to the west Put your warmth around me What did I give you in return A thousand letters to burn I'm sorry that I hurt you
