Burning Embers lyrics

Were we ready, who's to say the answer? Who is ever ready for these things? No one could prepare us for the laughter No one could prepare us for the pain You feel like burning embers You feel like coming home You feel like my forever And that's all I need/want/have to know Every night I ask for your forgiveness In grown up skin I still act like a child I can make believe that I am flawless You're close enough to see the cracks I hide You have caused me tears of joy relentless I cannot now imagine life without I owe you more than humble words could confess I love you more than I even know how You feel like burning embers You feel like coming home You feel like my forever And that's all I need to know You feel like Christmas morning You feel like summer rain You feel like holy waters That rinse away my stains You feel like children singing You feel like midnight calm You feel like breathing deeply Until the storm is gone
