Burning Bright
Maya Jane Coles Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I had a dark cloud above, pouring rain out for my ground.
Even in the storm I knew, you fought to keep me dry.
Your heart, it gave to me, a fire to hold up high.
You're a strong flame, burning bright. It's our turn, to light another.
You're a strong flame, burning bright. It's our turn, to light another.
It's our turn, it's our turn.
Currents fall for the flow, of the power your love brings.
Hurricanes couldn't blow the voyage my heart sings.
Even in the storm I knew, you fought to keep me dry.
Your heart, it gave to me, a fire to hold up high.
You're a strong flame, burning bright. It's our turn, to light another.
You're a strong flame, burning bright. It's our turn, to light another.
You're a strong flame, burning bright. It's our turn, to light another.
It's our turn, it's our turn.
You're a strong flame, burning bright. It's our turn, to light another.
You're a strong flame, burning bright. It's our turn, to light another.
You're a strong flame, burning bright. It's our turn, to light another.
It's our turn, it's our turn.

This song...
I don’t know how I found it, but I had been really connected to it for about 2 years...
I had never watched the video, until my best friend died in May 2022, her tombstone said “bright light” and the Devine channeled me to watch the actual video... many many tears happened, she spoke to me through your music with perfect synchronicity.
Thank you!
