Phoenix

Our love Battered and worn Tired and torn You've grown tired of me No love grows on its own Left all alone It's inspired in me Love falling from grace Can rise from the ashes And fall into place Love is just like a phoenix It can fly It can glow And it's based upon the dreams That we've both been dreaming of The promises you know Promise you know Love is just like a phoenix Let it sky Let it grow This is just the thing That, oh, I've been dreaming of The promises you know Promise you know In love, we've come so far Look to the stars Hold onto me Take my wings Hold on tight Cling to my love Hold onto me Oh, love Falling from grace Can rise from the ashes And fall into place Love is just like a phoenix It can fly It can glow And it's based upon the dreams That we've both been dreaming of Oh, the promise you know Promise you know Love is just like a phoenix Let it sky Let it grow This is just the sort of thing That we've both been hoping for The promises you know Promise you know So let's rise, rise, rise Rise, rise, rise Rise, rise, rise Rise, rise, rise Love is just like a phoenix It can fly It can glow And it's based upon the dreams That we've both been dreaming of And oh, the promises you know Promise you know Love is just like a phoenix Let it sky Let it grow This is just what we've both been dreaming of All the promises you know Promise you know Rise, rise, rise Rise, rise, rise Rise, rise, rise Rise, rise, rise --- Phoenix - Gregory Porter
