Oh Fire

Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh

I was cold. I was lonesome

The wind was in my face

The rain had come and soaked me to the bone

But that spark in my heart set those logs ablaze

Now I sing this song and give thanks in it's name

Oh fire, Oh fire, let it burn, Let it burn my fears, burn my woes away

Oh fire, Oh fire, let it burn, Let it burn my fears, burn my woes away

Ooh-ooh, Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Take this cedar. Take this pine. For none of it is mine

I am just a guest here for a short time

The smoke smells so sweet, ancient pleasures so discreet

Connecting us with the roots beneath our feet

Oh fire, oh fire, let it burn

Let it burn my fears, burn my woes away

Oh fire, oh fire, let it burn

Let it burn my fears, burn my woes away

Ooh-ooh, Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

The tobacco and sage, the turning of the page

The release of my stories and my pain

My gratitude runs deep for this warmth and this heat

And the sacrifice of ancestors beneath

Oh fire, oh fire, let it burn

Let it burn my fears, burn my woes away

Oh fire, oh fire, let it burn

Let it burn my fears, burn my woes away

Oh fire, oh fire, let it burn

Let it burn my fears, burn my woes away

Oh fire, oh fire, let it burn

Let it burn my fears, burn my woes away
