Flash Lyrics

It's hard, in a flash, to let you go
It's hard, in a flash, to let you go
When we were young we were told
That we could be just boys and let our dreams unfold
And as we grew we lived a sheltered life
A modern life that let us run and play

But it's tough when God comes crashing in to keep your soul at peace
And It's tough to do this growing up when driven to your knees
And it's hard, in a flash, to let you go
Oh, it's hard, in a flash, to let you go

Playing songs of the past
Sharing the meals we would share is how we deal
With the sheathing of our skin
And the thought that we could win against all odds

When it's tough when God comes crashing in to set your soul on fire
And it's tough to keep this love alive when stripped of your desire
When the filaments behind my eyes are rusted, rotted, burnt
Then I think of you and all is bright - a flash among the burn

But it's tough when God comes crashing in to keep your soul at rest
And it's tough to do this growing up when delivered such a test
But we fight and strive to live the life, that you had hoped to lead
And we're drinking in your honor, even though you'll never leave us
'cause it's true
Yes, it's true
Oh, it's true
I love you
