Lyrics
Last Night by the Fireplace

Turned down the lights, tucked the kids in the sheets
Started a fire, spoke about everything
Remembered our dreams, through old photographs
Should have been asleep, but there was no time for that
We closed our eyes, went back twenty years
Saw our innocent lives, brought joy to our tears
Those were the days, when we dreamt of getting older
Sailing away, into fields of golden
CHORUS
Last night by the fireplace
We took it slow, things go too fast these days
We held hands, laughed about old times
Got it right, last night by the fireplace
Turned on some music, and started to dance
Reaffirmed our vows, as we held each others hands
The for granteds we too, in recent years
We saw our fragileness, that night as they disappeared
CHORUS
Last night by the fireplace
We took it slow, began to appreciate
All that we have, in our blessed lives
Got it right, last night by the fireplace
BRIDGE
The winds of change
They keep blowing upon your face
And the wheels of time
Keep moving on
But somehow they stopped
Last night by the fireplace
Started a fire, tucked the kids in the sheets
Should have been tired, but we just could not sleep
Well these are our days, our glorious year
Found a way that night, to enjoy each other while were here
CHORUS
