Lighting a Fire
Lighting A Fire
Bic
Light it, the fire
It's burning desire
Desire to be lit,an endless flicker
Like a time clock quite the ticker
I'm yearning, it's burning
The whole flame
You can out it out
It will change
Have you ever lit a grill
With the coals
Did you ever know that you had control
You can put vinegar and water
On it and it will calm down
That's what happens
When you light the fire
What if it were to rain
Would the flame still be lit
What if you wanted something so bad
You would do anything to have it
Light it, even when it's dim
Light it, when the tunnel is cold
Light it,Because it's in you
Light it for all you've been through
Light it until the flame is out
Then relight it that's what it's all about
