Joe Henry Flesh And Blood Lyrics

Flesh And Blood Lyrics

Aaaah come sit beside me

That'll do for now



The night has come and left me

Just the light that you allow



Come speak my name

Fill my head with oh such foolish dreams



My flesh and blood

Is no more real to me 

Than what it seems



My love for you is burning

Like a sparkle on a fuse



I feel your mark upon me now

As surely as the hand that leaves the bruise



Life is for the living

And life comes hard for some

The rest of us were flesh and blood

Make it hard all on our own



All I ever wanted

Was the freedom to refuse

Or something of my own to love enough

To hate to lose



The fever in my brain

Is leaving smoke behind my eyes

When the part of me that wants to change

Fights the part of me that tries



Come see the gold light

Cause I turned the gold light on.



Sometimes God knows

You've got to learn to shine shine shine shine all on your own



I I I I I stepped out of darkness

And for a moment 

I'm only living by your kiss your kiss your kiss your kiss your lips your kiss


your kiss

And now, just for now our flesh and blood's more real than this



More real than this (X2)



More more more more more more more more more more more more real than this



Flesh and blood is more real than this



More real than this (X2)



Flesh and blood (X2)



More real than this



More real



More real than this
