Take this lantern and burn it down Scatter the ashes on holy ground We'll dance circles and sing around Praying for answers till the sun goes down I can't love you if you won't let go I can't lead you where you don't want to go This old house, well it's burning down And I don't want to find our ashes on the ground When the flames settle down Crosses hanging in one room shack Whisper something that you can't take back I ain't seen a thing in my whole life Like a woman who loves a man that treats her right But I can't love you if you won't let go I can't lead you where you don't want to go This old house, well it's burning down And I don't want to find our ashes on the ground When the flames settled down I'm not leaving I'm not leaving Without you I'm not leaving I'm not leaving Without you... But I can't love you if you won't let go I can't lead you where you don't want to go This old house, well it's burning down And I don't want to find our ashes on the ground When the flames settled down
