In the gloaming I can see you
I can see your eyes
They're looking colder
They're looking through me
They're seeing all of my lies
Well, I don't need no sore defense
I don't need to go on pretending
What I did I have done I would do again
I am the keeper of the flame
My love's gonna bring you down
My love's gonna fill you up
My love it's the talk of the town
I am the keeper of the flame
In the distance, in the spotlight
In your midnight mind
You can't touch me
But your fingers
Are pointing all the time
Well, I don't need no heart-to-heart
I don't need no broader shoulders
What I did I have done I would do again
I am the keeper of the flame
My love's gonna bring you down
My love's gonna build you up
My love it's the talk of the town
I am the keeper of the flame
My love's gonna tear you down
My love's gonna build you up
My love it's the talk of the town
I am the keeper of the flame
Don't try to console me, no
Though it's such a shame
We should have gone on and on
My love's gonna bring you down
My love's gonna fill you up
My love it's the talk of the town
I am the keeper of the flame
My love's gonna bring you down
My love's gonna fill you up
My love it's the talk of the town
I am the keeper of the flame
