Solomon Burke - Flesh and Blood lyrics

[Solomon Burke - Flesh and Blood lyrics]

Come sit beside me that'll do for now
The night has come and left me
Just the light that you allow

Come speak my name
Fill my head with all such foolish dreams
My flesh and blood is no more real to me
Than what it seems

My love for you is burning
Like a spark along a fuse
I feel your mark upon me now
As surely as the hand that leaves the bruise

Life is for the living
And life comes hard for some
The rest of us with flesh and blood
Make it hard all along

All I ever wanted was the freedom to refuse
Or something of my own to love enough


To hate, to lose the fever in my brain
Is leaving smoke behind my eyes
But the part of me that wants to change
Fights the part of me that tries

Come see the golden light
'Cause I've turned the gold light on
Sometimes God knows
You gotta learn to shine, shine, shine shine
Shine

I stepped out of darkness and for a moment
I'm only living by your kiss, your kiss
Your kiss your kiss your, lips your kiss
And now, just for now, our flesh and blood
Is more real than this more real than this
More real than this
More, more, more, more real than this
