Lyrics

I won't rue my love for you
I won't know my way
I won't hope that you can do
Everything I say

Count the earth and stars, my friends
They got all we need
Work my fingers to the bone
Just to watch them bleed

Bleed, bleed, bleed, bleed

Drumbeat faster, all your love
Can you feel the flame?
All to passion burned for crowds
Calling out our name

Don't be cold and don't be shy
We have only now
Light the bonfires while you can
Stoke them for the cow
