Devotion
Tristam Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Silent in the dark
Waiting for the spark
The wood soaked in their blood
Their hands join in the mud
The ember gently glowed
The spark took to their clothes
The flames kept on rising higher
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fi-
Stood in the fi-
(Love and-)
(Love and-)
(Love and-)
Tighter than before
They still want something more
The heat dries out the skin
As their patience grows thinner
Thinner than before
Cause they want even more
Cause they share in this fire
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
Fire, Fire, Fire
This fire, fire
This fire, fire
This fire, fire
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fi-
Stood in the fi-
(Love and-)
