Ending (the fire denied)

There’s no coincidence / miracles surround

When the sun begins / pass it around

** Open time for me we’re ending the fire denied

I’ll pay your chances / one is your life

Night dance in street talk / make me your wife

** Open time for me we’re ending the fire denied

Slip on a defense / between wrong and right

Make me a morning / take off the night

** Open time for me we’re ending the fire denied

Memory has this being written on an old acoustic guitar in the Dundee neighborhood of Omaha in 1989(ish). Trying to write a love song with detachment and cool is fucking hard.

This version was recorded with some grunge dudes in Seattle in the mid/late 90’s..
