The Core Eric Clapton

[00:03.94] Every morning when I wake,
[00:20.77] A feeling soon begins to overtake me
[00:27.26] Ringing in my ears resounds through my brain;
[00:31.02] It finally surrounds me
[00:36.62] There is fire, there is life,
[00:39.05] There is passion, fever and fury.
[00:39.36] There is love and there is hate,
[00:48.55] There is longing, anger and worry.
[00:56.76] Oh, I am a flame;
[01:01.05] Feel it touch my heart.
[01:05.14] And down at my core is the hottest part.
[01:11.57] I can run without fear.
[01:51.41] If it should become too cold,
[01:53.96] I know I can endure the frostbite.
[02:00.35] Oh, a blanket then I'll wrap around me;
[02:03.14] I keep myself so close to my sight.
[02:09.65] No one then can cause me harm,
[02:12.35] Just as the river runs into the sea.
[02:18.64] 'Cause every day,
[02:20.53] A fire alarm is deafening the silence all around me.
[02:29.98] It is burning.
[03:05.65] It is burning.
[04:47.64] You can trust me; we can laugh
[04:49.66] Together we can share our sorrow.
[04:51.93] I will give you secrets too,
[04:58.39] An attitude that you may borrow.
[05:04.74] Gypsy woman said to me,
[05:07.48] "One thing you must bear in your mind:
[05:13.95] You are young and you are free,
[05:16.94] But damned if you're deceased in your own lifetime."
[05:23.99] Oh, you have a flame;
[05:29.34] Feel it in your heart.
[05:33.13] And down at the core is the hottest part.
[05:39.42] We can run without fear.
[05:57.38] It is burning.
[05:59.54] It is burning.
