[Intro]
"Seven years have gone, it can no longer be left undone
The candle must be burn again, and pain
Must follow the unholy flame
So burn... Burn... Burn
And free the spirit from its chain"
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
[Verse 1]
Here I am blinded again by that flame
In every candle that I burn, burn!
I see that same face return, it returns
[Verse 2]
Eyes in pain, my little queen are you a dream
In every candle that I burn, burn!
I see that same face return, it returns
[Guitar Solo: Michael Denner]
[Verse 3]
Time has come for you to tell the truth, what shall I do?
Tears are running from her eyes
If she could only tell me why, you don't tell me why
[Guitar Solo: Michael Denner]
[Bridge]
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Ah!
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Ah!
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
The jonah...
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
The jonah
Ah! Ah!
Ah! Ah!
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
[Verse 4]
In twisted key she speaks a word to me and then I see
Her face falling apart
The word "Jonah" is her mark, she's branded
[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]
