Lyrics
Ashes & Embers
©Pau3-334-727 Bill Long 2007 BMI 14046533
Ashes & embers
Are all that remain
Of a fire that once burned
With a hot, bright flame.
Ashes & embers
Glow in the hearth
And light up a room
That is slowly growing dark.
Chorus:
Ashes & embers
Are all that remain
Ashes & embers
Warm in the hearth.
Ashes & embers
May light up again.
Ashes & embers
Glowing in the dark.
Break: verse sequence
Ashes & embers
May burst into a fire
If they can be tended
With a little tender care.
Ashes & embers
May never grow cold
If they are not forgotten
And left on their own.
Chorus
