The spark was young, dark hair summer sun
From parks and swings to wedding rings
The embers grew in time
And with the dawn, she will be gone
In dressing gown your tears pour down
And fall around your feet
So it takes and you fight
Frantic hands holding tight
In the night with the flames reaching higher
And she turns from your light and the shadows recite
How you've hurt here as they hide her from your sight.
But life cares not for fire
Or fuel for your desire
But flowers will grow with each tear that you sow
In the ashes of a love that died in the fire of your pride
Let it slide from your heart let it go
With every love that dies you learn
That loves fire can still burn
Let it burn in your heart
Let it glow"
