(Mary Gauthier)



I felt the flames on my face

When I found the nerve to meet your eyes, so green

I stumbled towards your elegance

I tumbled, wide awake into a dream



And there you stood, so beautiful

Destiny seduces, after all

I fell into the fire

That's a long way to fall



You gave me strength to speak

When my voice was weak and words were hard to find

Your faith in me was solid and

it stood me up when I couldn't steady mine

All those times I cried at night

You promised me it'd be all right
