Staring into the Flame Songtext
von Nashville Tribute Band

Every night before I lay me down
I feel that peace in those sultry sounds
Somewhere between the dancing orange and red
My deepest thoughts stir inside my head
Getting lost in tomorrow and yesterday
Staring into the flame

Should I stay, should I go
Should I run, should I hold on and fight
For what′s right even though it may cost my life
For so long my name's sake
Have leaned on the One who saves
And I contemplate these things
Staring into the flame

I close my eyes and see my family
And I weigh it all against the promises I keep
And any fear is buried by this love inside
But I can′t say I'm not concerned, 'cause that would be a lie


Should I stay, should I go
Should I run, should I hold on and fight
For what′s right even though it may cost my life
For so long my name′s sake
Have leaned on the One who saves
And I contemplate these things
Staring into the flame

I am Samson, I am David, I am Abraham
I am Esther, I am Joshua, I am Gideon
I am the Maccabees
I was bound, I am free
What has been, what will be
I am you, I am me

Should I stay, should I go
Should I run, should I hold on and fight
For what's right even though it may cost my life
For so long my name′s sake
Have leaned on the One who saves
And I contemplate these things
Staring into the flame

Will my children's children be
Free like I want them to be
If I don′t contemplate these things
Staring into the flame

Oh, staring into the flame
