I Want To Burn Again lyrics

The newcomer arrives
possession and guilt in his face
apologises to the Customs man
for the gaping hole in his suitcase
says `I`ve seen where promises are made
I`ve seen how people are undone
it`s always done
man to man
one to one

I`m ditching an empty suitcase
I`ve been in Storytown
I`ve been swimming in poisons
been slowing up and down
I`ve known the eeriest wounds
the soul`s long quarantine
when no rewards remain
no one and nothing comes clean
I`ve been blown about for years
on my way to you
I`ve been blown about for years
on my way to you
and I still turn to love
I want to burn again
and I still turn to love

In a room
where arrangements are made for success
you try to say that you possess me
by your caress
I met your lover yesterday
wearing some things I left at your place
singing a song that means a lot to me
I`ve known a certain grace

I`ve been blown about for years

on my way to you ..
and I still turn to love

I`m still turning
I want to burn again
