Glow

your picture resides

in a plastic page

sincerity reflects

off the cellophane

burning embers that fill the ashtray

let me write away

i'm ready to rest, i'm ready to die

god, i love your face

love is blind

so feel the warm glow

you're so scared you'll get cut

believe me, kid, i know

one more smoke and then i've gotta run

and the longing's just begun

with all the hearts that i've known

can yours be the last one?

i hope my eyes don't hurt too much when i look back

i know by morning time your pillow will be black

i hope that every night you'll bring me new light

i hope my trembling hands get held by yours, so tight

so, baby, just glow

i hope my eyes don't hurt too much when you look back

i know by morning time your pillow will be black

i know that every night you'll bring me new light

and i hope you'll hold this broken heart

i'll be yours, i won't go

so, baby, let's glow

so, i'll shout at the storm

dark thunder, farewell

so long, dark clouds

i'll see you in hell!

so, baby, just glow

i'm so proud of you for glowing
