Flash Paper

Copperlily


Some love is flash paper,
The thickest vapor,
The heaviest smoke
Our love is a smoldering fire,
Sometimes brighter,
Sometimes left alone

We began as a spark
In the depth of the heart of hope,
Just a candle on the mantle
Of the darkest room in the soul
Some love is a fire cracker,
A violent attacker

A bloody assault
Our love is a slow riser,
A little bit wiser,
A depth still unknown

I'm just a man trying to
Understand how to love you
With the heart of a sinner
I can't be your savior, no matter how hard I try to

Yeah, I'm just a man trying
To understand how to love you,
And I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I do
I will be there in the morning
I will be there in the night
