The night falls dark around me, and the dogs bark out a curse
A bad dreams twist inside me and I scream for a doctor or a nurse
But I'm just dyin' for morning, watch the sun rise like a pearl
Just to feel the breath of your life as your smile lights up the world
And I'm burnin' on a higher flame, burning' on a higher flame
burning' on a higher flame, burning' on a higher flame
Oh hoo burnin, burnin
A lot of things in this world make a man fall down and cry
The hell hound's on my trail, and the mighty rivers run dry
But now I know you're with me, I stand above it all
And take the pain they give me, make it nothing like a pain at all
And I'm burnin' on a higher flame, burning' on a higher flame
burning' on a higher flame, burning' on a higher flame
Oh hoo burnin, burnin
And I'm burnin' on a higher flame, burning' on a higher flame
burning' on a higher flame, burning' on a higher flame
Oh hoo burnin, burnin
yes I'm burnin, burnin then
Burnin, Burnin, Burnin, Burnin
