"Would That I"
[00:18.86] True that I saw her hair like the branch of a tree
[00:22.60] Willow dancing on air before covering me
[00:26.28] Under cotton and calicos
[00:29.77] Over canopy dapple long ago
[00:34.92] .
[00:37.16] True that love in withdrawal was the weeping of me
[00:40.82] That the sound of the saw must be known by the tree
[00:44.68] Must be felled for to fight the cold
[00:48.08] I fretted fire but that was long ago
[00:54.23] .
[00:59.19] And it's not tonight (Oooh, oooh)
[01:02.82] Where I'm set alight (Oooh, oooh)
[01:06.45] And I blink in sight (Oooh, oooh)
[01:10.34] Your blinding light (Oooh)
[01:12.83] Oh, it's not tonight (Oooh, oooh)
[01:17.45] Where you hold me tight (Oooh, oooh)
[01:21.20] And the fire bright (Oooh, oooh)
[01:23.94] Oh, let it blaze, alright (Oooh)
[01:27.82] Oh, but you're good to me
[01:30.32] Oh, you're good to me
[01:31.81] Oh, but you're good to me, baby
[01:36.48] .
[01:48.85] With the roar of the fire my heart rose to its feet
[01:52.54] Like the ashes of ash I saw rise in the heat
[01:56.24] Settle soft and as pure as snow
[01:59.70] I fell in love with the fire long ago
[02:05.80] .
[02:07.32] With each love I cut loose I was never the same
[02:10.95] Watching still living roots be consumed by the flame
[02:14.57] I was fixed on your hand of gold
[02:18.03] Laying waste to my loving long ago
[02:23.23] .
[02:29.04] But that's not tonight (Oooh, oooh)
[02:32.90] Where I'm set alight (Oooh, oooh)
[02:36.54] And I blink in sight (Oooh, oooh)
[02:40.26] Of your blinding light (Oooh)
[02:43.65] And it's not tonight (Oooh, oooh)
[02:47.54] Where you hold me tight (Oooh, oooh)
[02:51.29] And the fire bright (Oooh, oooh)
[02:53.90] Oh, let it blaze, alright, honey (Oooh)
[02:57.56] Oh, but you're good to me
[03:00.21] Oh, you're good to me
[03:01.97] Oh, but you're good to me, baby
[03:05.60] .
[03:11.61] So in awe there I stood as you licked off the grain
[03:15.12] Though I've handled the wood, I still worship the flame
[03:18.88] Long as amber of ember glows
[03:22.38] All the "would that I loved" is long ago
[03:29.88] And it's not tonight (Oooh, oooh)
[03:33.38] Where I'm set alight (Oooh, oooh)
[03:37.12] And I blink in sight (Oooh, oooh)
[03:39.99] Of your blinding light (Oooh)
[03:43.60] Oh, it's not tonight (Oooh, oooh)
[03:48.11] When you hold me tight (Oooh, oooh)
[03:51.72] And the fire bright (Oooh, oooh)
[03:54.60] Oh, let it blaze, alright (Oooh)
[03:58.90] Oh, but you're good to me
[04:00.95] Oh, you're good to me
[04:02.39] Oh, but you're good to me
[04:04.53] Oh, you're good to me
[04:08.28] You're good to me
[04:09.67] Oh, but you're good to me, baby
