Flyleaf - Treasure Lyrics

Artist: Flyleaf

Album: Memento Mori

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Sameer Bhattacharya, James Culpepper, Jared Hartmann, Lacey Nicole Mosley, Kirkpatrick Seals

That night I felt like I'd become something treasured, different

Can I tell you a story as we dance while the sun starts to bleed?
Song of songs, love is calling, daughter wake up from your sleep

Refined, I'll become the most dazzling precious treasure
I'll be treasured over all the earth

Bearing the gift of a new heart
Patience ablaze I'm slowly burning

Refined, I'll become the most dazzling precious treasure
I'll be treasured over all the earth
Refined, I'll become the most dazzling precious treasure
I'll be treasured over all the earth

I am in awe and in shock, I'm in love and given away
I'm reserved with these words

Can I tell you a story as we dance while the sun starts to bleed?
Trees rejoice with the wind here, hallelujah Yeshua

Tonight I've become the most dazzling precious
I am treasured over all the earth

Just look at what He's done, how He's laying down His life
Take this life, oh, most dazzling precious treasure

Tonight I've become the most dazzling precious treasure
I am treasure over all the earth

    She also wrote that her husbands love for her is like Christ's love for his church, that's why it says, Just look at what He's done, How He's laying down His life...

    Songs and poems can have double meanings people, I'm willing to bet it's both of them.

    Actually this song is written about Lacey's (the singers) proposal. Her boyfriend took her to a lake, it was their one year anniversary, and they started talking. He wanted to have a picnic, and the sun was going down. He had his ipod in his pocket and put their song on. They danced as the sun was setting as he told the story of how they had gotten together. He asked her to marry him. "Can i tell you a story, as we dance as the sun starts to bleed?"

    if I correctly understand this, I believe it means that Jesus is a most dazzling precious treasure and then when we accept Him into our hearts, we have Christ in us and therefore we become a dazzling precious treasure. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
