flame turns blue

i went looking for someone i left behind, yeah but no-one just a stranger did i find, i never noticed hadn't seen it as it grew, the void between us where the flame turns blue, different places yeah but they all look the same, dreams of faces in the streets devoured by names, i'm in collision with every stone i ever threw, and blind ambition where the flame turns blue, words dismantled hey and all the books unbound, conversations though we utter not a sound, i heard a rumour don't know if it's true, that you'd meet me where the flame turns blue, so i venture underneath the leaden sky, see the freight train with its one fierce eye, and then i listen as it tears the night in two, and a whistle and the flame turns blue, in the morning i will sing, in the morning i will sing, through the lemon trees the diamonds of light, break in splinters on the pages where i write, that if i lost you i don't know what i'd do, burn forever where the flame turns blue, yeah if i lost you i don't know what i'd do, burn forever where the flame turns blue, in the morning i will sing in the morning i will sing, in the morning i will sing, in the morning i will sing
