Burning Timber Lyrics - Singles - The Rembrandts

Where is everybody goin' 

Are Always learnin' never knowin' 

Try and stop the world from turning 

But it won't slow down 

I was the one you gave your heart to 

But after all what did it get you? 

Was it enough to put an end to 

The risin' flames? 

We stand like, burnin' timber 

Helpless among the cinders 

I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue 

What else could I do? 

We need to work our way around it 

Let it be the way we found it 

The more that everything keeps changin' 

The less we are gainin' 

We stand like, burnin' timber 

Helpless among the cinders 

I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue 

What else could I do? 

You build me up, you cut me down 

You fight me tooth and nail 

Now hand in hand, we walk alone 

Along this blazing trail 

We stand like, burnin' timber 

Helpless among the cinders 

I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue 

What else could I do? 

We stand like, burnin' timber 

We stand like, burnin' timber
