Don't Burn the Pig (Acoustic)
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 look at my blood.
It's alive right now deep and sweet within; pouring through our veins.
Oh intoxicated moving wine to tears, and drinkin' it deeply.
On this evening spent dancing it's you and me, oh...
This Love will open our world,
From the dark side we can see the glow of something bright.
Much more than you'll ever know.
So, don't burn the day...
Away.
Dont burn the day away.
Is this not enough?
This blessed sip of life is it not enough?
Sraring down at the ground.
Then complain and pray "
I need more from above" like a greedy little pig.
Just watch let the world trickle away, but it's not your problem now.
Because we will all be dead and gone in a few short years, oh...
Just love will open our eyes,
Only love will a put the hope back in our minds.
Much more than you could ever know, so, don't burn the day.
Away...
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 that the best is yet to come.
Why?
While we are dancing on the ground,
Don't think of life when you're gone.
Love, love, love, what more is there?
Because we need the good light of love in here.
Don't beat your head, dry your eyes, let the love in there.
There are bad times but that's OK just look for love in there...
Yeah.
Just look for love, in there.
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 look at my blood.
It's alive right now deep and sweet within; pouring through our veins.
Oh intoxicated moving wine to tears, and drinkin' it deeply.
On this evening spent dancing it's you and me, oh...
This Love will open our world,
From the dark side we can see the glow of something bright.
Much more than you'll ever know.
So, don't burn the day...
Away.
Dont burn the day away.
Is this not enough?
This blessed sip of life is it not enough?
Sraring down at the ground.
Then complain and pray "
I need more from above" like a greedy little pig.
Just watch let the world trickle away, but it's not your problem now.
Because we will all be dead and gone in a few short years, oh...
Just love will open our eyes,
Only love will a put the hope back in our minds.
Much more than you could ever know, so, don't burn the day.
Away...
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 that the best is yet to come.
Why?
While we are dancing on the ground,
Don't think of life when you're gone.
Love, love, love, what more is there?
Because we need the good light of love in here.
Don't beat your head, dry your eyes, let the love in there.
There are bad times but that's OK just look for love in there...
Yeah.
Just look for love, in there.
