Golden Embers

Just like an old friend Kinder than expected That Cadillac came and gave our girl a ride Loss has no end It binds to our connection And we don't speak of it, we don't even try If you could help me to share the trouble That you've got burning in you, then you can help me And in our time together Her memory will ever shine like golden embers in the night I miss the old hymns When she used to sing The sparrows spread their mortal wings Now they've all lighted With the silence of strings Like notes on the pages, she breathed life into all things If you could help me to share the trouble That you've got burning in you, then you can help me And in our time together Her memory will ever shine like golden embers in the night Just like an old friend Reach out to me Bathe me in the light of understanding And try to help me to share the trouble That you've got burning in you, then you can help me And in our time together Her memory will ever shine like golden embers in the night
