lyrics

CARRY THE TORCH
(Words & Music by Scott Collins and Kim Collins)

Wide eyed... and white tailed
I’m not here to lick your wounds
I am here to carry the torch
I ain’t mad it’s what I deserve

A thousand years and a thousand songs
Still not enough to turn the knob
I remember who I was and who I become
I remember it all... it all adds up

The future ain’t bright the past ain’t gone
The moment’s all I got to turn me on
I ain’t mad it’s what I deserve
I am here to carry the torch

Past lives... Don’t jive
I’m not lying in the tomb
I am here to carry the torch
I ain’t mad it’s what I deserve

A thousand knights and a thousand thrones
Still not enough to carry the load
All I was... all I become
All I am... it all adds up

The future ain’t right the past ain’t wrong
The moment’s all I got to turn it on
I ain’t mad it’s what I deserve
I am here to carry the torch

I am here to carry the torch
I am here to carry the torch
I am here to carry the torch
I am enough to change the earth
I remember who I was and who I become
I remember it all... it all adds up
I am here to carry the torch
I am here to carry the torch
I AM ENOUGH TO CHANGE THE EARTH...
I am here to carry the torch

The Smoking Flowers Nashville, Tennessee

There are not enough words to describe the intrinsic chemistry Kim and Scott Collins possess. They have discovered what some duos spend their entire careers trying to find: a fascinating marriage between artistic talent and subtle sensuality that pierces the attention of anyone in the same room as them... the second their wild feet touch the stage they exude just how tenured they truly are. ... more
