Ashes

Sitting here staring at All of your used up cigarettes I should probably throw that ash tray out I still don't understand How the both of us just let The flame we had die down We say we're okay Doesn't every fire burn out anyway Yeah we both walked away Better as friends, but at least our hearts are safe I wonder how we went from striking matches To cleaning up the ashes Visions of you and I Still burn in the back of my mind Over and over again I'll spend tonight at home Lighting one up all alone 'Cause it tastes just like your lips We say we're okay Doesn't every fire burn out anyway Yeah we both walked away Better as friends, but at least our hearts are safe I wonder how we went from striking matches To cleaning up the ashes Oh, mm, mm We say we're okay Doesn't every fire burn out anyway Yeah we both walked away Better as friends, but at least our hearts are safe I wonder how we went from striking matches From a love so hot with just one touch it catches To cleaning up the ashes Mm, mm
