Richie Havens - In These Flames


Versuri/text:

When I saw you at the gate
I said to you what I could see
I see it now that you believe
We can't survive with what we made

Now you say I can be so free
Now you say I should try
Now you say I can live in peace
Do not ask me why...

I still love you

My body torn, my mind was lost
And in my pain my thoughts were clear
One last time I saw your face
So deep in me the love I fear
Now you say I can be so free
Now you say I should try
Now say I can live in peace
Do not ask me why
I still love you

In these flames I've ...?...
I thought our love could not be saved
In my pleasure was your pain
I cannot stop this...you made
Now you say I could be so free
Now you say I should try
Now you say I can live in peace
Do not ask me why
I still love you

Swollen rain within you eyes
Have....?...the joys once in our lives
Now you're leaving as I say
To say our love was just a lie

Now you say I could be so free
Now you say I should try
Now you say I can live in peace
Do not ask me why
I still love you

I still love you
I still love you
I still love you
I still love you
I still love you

oh oh oh oh
I still love you
I still love you
I still love you
