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
