Sleeping Flame Lyrics Meanings
by Marry Waterson & Oliver Knight

Running to stand still day after day
she thought she had more to say
But the morning came too soon
and as she gazed upon the ruined room
...sleeping flame. Sleeping flame
Behind the curtains in the wings
speak to me of other things
My mother said I'd made my bed
I'll sleep in it upside down I said
...sleeping flame. Sleeping flame
...sleeping flame. Sleeping flame

Master of my yesterdays
rewind, rewind, press play
Bend the bow and laugh away a tear
Keep a little for yourself my dear
...sleeping flame. Sleeping flame
...sleeping flame. Sleeping flame
