Crystal Flame-Blues Traveler

Music & Lyrics: Chan Kinchla & John Popper Sitting in clover looking for the fifth leaf Something soon will come my way Never failing to amaze me I feel its wisdom anyway Rays of sweet illumination Inspiration too untold I hope some day I can befriend it I think that comes with growing old Crystal flame I'll do anything you say You're my heart and my mind and my soul At least you fill them when I play Light so bright it hypnotizes But it never hurts to gaze Never to burn or char with fire Simply the heat from warmer days And when the moment tends to savor When the song is close at hand That frozen ember fills my vision Letting the brightness take command... take command Crystal flame I'll do anything you say You're my heart and my mind and my soul At least you fill them when I play Please, please won't you take me away It's easy, easy just let me play Please, please won't you take me away It's easy, easy just let me play Sometimes its brilliance all around me Sometimes its light I barely see And though I utilize its grandeur It does not belong to me Cause all I can do is vague description As I do my best to share The smooth perfection I can only dream of The flow of all the life that's there Life that's there Crystal flame I'll do anything you say You're my heart and my mind and my soul At least you fill them when I play Keep me safe and never lonely Let the rain fall where it may And let me find the peace within me I can find it when I play They say that solid wet or vapor The only forms that are portrayed To them I ask one burning question Of what stuff are ideas made Are they made? Crystal flame I'll do anything you say You're my heart and my mind and my soul At least you fill them when I play Sitting in clover looking for the fifth leaf Something soon will come my way
