lyrics

TRIMMED AND BURNING

I’m trimmed and burning
ready for the night

No man lights a candle
just to hide it away
but when you light a candle
you turn the darkness into day

a city built on a mountain
just can’t hide from the storm
but when you stand on a mountain
you’re the first to see the dawn

There’s just no point in turning back
once you put your hand to the plough
now we’re on this long, winding road
we’re going to make it somehow

I’m trimmed and burning
ready for the night.
