Pig

Oh, isn't it strange

How we move our lives

for another day

Like skipping a beat

What if a great wave

should wash us all away

Just thinking out loud

Don't mean to dwell

on this dying thing

But looking at blood

It's alive right now

Deep and sweet within

Pouring through our veins

Intoxicate

moving wine to tears

And drinking it deep

Then an evening

spent dancing

It's you and me

This love will open our world

From the dark side we can see

the glow of something bright

There's much more than we see

here

Don't burn the day

away

Don't burn the day

Don't burn the day away

Is this not enough?

This blessed sip of life,

is it not enough?

Staring down at the ground

Oh, then complain and pray

for more from above,

You greedy little pig,

Stop, just watch your world

trickle away

Oh, it's your problem now

It'll all be dead and gone

in a few short years, oh

Just love will open our eyes

Just love will put the hope

back in our minds

Much more than we could

ever know

Oh, so don't burn the day

away

Don't burn the day

away

Oh, come sisters,

my brothers,

Shake up your bones,

shake up your feet,

I'm saying,

open up

and let the rain

come pouring in

Wash out this

tired notion

Oh, that the best

is yet to come

But oh, while you're

dancing on the ground,

Don't think of,

oh, when you're gone

Love, love, love,

what more is there?

'Cause we need

the light of love in here

Don't beat your head,

dry your eyes,

let the love in there,

There's bad times

but that's okay,

just look for love in there

And don't burn the day

away

Look, here are we,

On this starry night,

staring into space

And I must say,

I feel as small as dust

lying down here, oh,

What point could

there be troubling

Head down, wondering,

"what will become of me?"

Why concern?

We cannot see

but no reason to abandon it

The time is short,

time, that's all right

Maybe I'll go out

in the middle of the night,

And take your hand,

seeing from your eyes, my love

All good things must come

to an end sometime, oh,

but don't burn the day

away

Don't burn the day

away

Oh, come sisters,

my brothers,

Shake up your bones,

shake up your feet,

I'm saying

open up

and let the rain come

flooding in

Wash out this

tired notion

That the best

is yet to come

But, oh,

while you're dancing

on the ground

Don't think of

when you're gone

Love, love, love,

what more is there?

'Cause we need

the light of love in here

Don't beat your head,

and dry your eyes,

let the love in there

The bad times,

well that's okay,

Let's just look for

love in here, yeah

Just let the love in there,

Oh love,

light up...
