[Verse 1]
It starts with a spark
A breath and a moment of still
A flicker, a glow as the oxygen spills
Through a delta of spindles and stone
Kindled from nothing in a whisper of smoke
And there a gift ignites, a cursive thought takes flight
And there's a dancer twisting in between the spines
Give her the breather's kiss, and watch her spirit lift
She'll take over the stage and she'll own the night
[Pre-Chorus]
Learning how to make a name
From the words we can't keep in
Learning how to strike a flame
And draw her fire from nothing
[Chorus]
I don't know where to begin
To make these words take shape
How to nurture a flame
To raise it to a blaze
That on the clearest night can be seen forever
I don't know where to begin, or begin again
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
