Burns Too Bright

Philbo King performing his original jazz-rock song 'Burns Too Bright' at the Artisans Sanctuary in Marion Iowa during the Marion Art Fair May 19, 2018. Lyrics and Music (c) 2017 Philbo King Music I've been in love in the springtime, electric feeling in the air I was flowing like a good wine, always knowing she was there Now I've had my share of troubles, I know misery well She burned me down to ashes, sent me into hell I can't take it Can't take it no more If I ever meet a woman who can take me as I am She'll end for me a bad dream, make my sore heart mend She'd talk to me so softly and hold me tight And tell me that it's always going to be alright If I ever meet a woman Who can take me as I am We sat and watched the morning sun and kept each other warm And drank to our happiness, I was captive in her arms Now I've burned a lot of bridges and built a new life I saw it in a dream that night she'd be my wife We can't break it, the love burns too bright Can't break it, the love burns too bright The love burns to bright
