Description: The neshama is like a flame. Sometimes that flame flickers and threatens to be extinguished. It is the beautiful experiences that we have in our yiddishkeit that can help us through these difficult times.

Lyrics:

Intro: 

Ooooh woah ohhh

Verse 1:

9 years old and a flickering flame

Those are the moments I can’t explain

Looking back I can feel the heat

The warmth reflecting off my cheek

Verse 2:

Settled down now its been so long

Since I’ve seen them sing those songs

Carries me through the days I feel

That there’s nothing else that heals

Pre:

Been through those ups and downs

They called me lost and found

But now I think I found myself

In that flickering flame

Oh, in that flickering flame

Chorus: 

Ooh oooh

My mind fills with memories from youth

Ooh oooh

Just me and the flame but now I’m flickering too

Looking back at

Pictures on my shelf

Times I felt my safest

Times I felt myself

Thinking back when

There was no where to run

I knew I had a purpose

My life had just begun

Just like the flame

Intro:

Ooooh woah ohhh

Verse 3: 

Grown up now I’m on my way

Driven by those flames

Everytime I lose my sight

I remember those guiding lights

Pre:

Been through those ups and downs

They called me lost and found

But now I think I found myself

In that flickering flame

Oh, in that flickering flame

Chorus:

Ooh oooh

My mind fills with memories from youth

Ooh oooh

Just me and the flame but now I’m flickering too

Looking back at

Pictures on my shelf

Times I felt my safest

Times I felt myself

Thinking back when

There was no where to run

I knew I had a purpose

My life had just begun

Bridge:

Some things things things you just can’t forget

Brings us back back back back to ourselves

Back to the good good good old days

‘Cause we’re all we’re all flickering flames

Chorus:

Ooh oooh

My mind fills with memories from youth

Ooh oooh

Just me and the flame but now I’m flickering too

Looking back at

Pictures on my shelf

Times I felt my safest

Times I felt myself

Thinking back when

There was no where to run

I knew I had a purpose

My life had just begun

Just like the flame
