Lyrics
Burning Doves
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Behind a velvet rope, we hide in plain sight
We're dressed in black smoke, and have our hands tied
She says, "I see you babe," but we are both blind
Our bodies yearning for what we cannot find
The end is beginning and I'm falling
So take it or leave it cause I'm all in
We're too young to die today, to die today
But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away
Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire
All in the name of love
We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves
You've been on your knees praying for so long
When you close your eyes the words do not come
The end is beginning and you're falling
So take it or leave it cause I'm all in
We're too young to die today, to die today
But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away
Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire
All in the name of love
We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves
If you can show me, I can lift you up
And if you call my name, then I can see up
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the things we've done
We're falling, we're falling from a burning Sun
We flew too high looking for love
We knew the skies, but not well enough
We're too young to die today, to die today
But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away
Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire
All in the name of love
We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves
