After the Flame

How many days since we've spoken?

How many times have you tried?

To mend the pieces of my broke broken heart

Don't tell me everything's over

Don't take the sun from my eye

It's much too late to be alone

When our love grows old

And the fire gets cold

I will scream and shout it

Till there is no room to die

When the colors fade

On the world we've made

I will keep on tryin'

Long after the flame is dyin'

Too late, too long to mention

Too wide to keep them inside

This renovation of my wounded soul

You are the wind of adventure

You are the sun in my eye

You are the one who keeps me whole

When our love grows old

And the fire gets cold

I will scream and shout it

Till there is no room to die

When the colors fade

On the world we've made

I will keep on tryin'

Long after the flame is dyin'

When our love grows old

And the fire gets cold

When our love grows old

And the fire gets cold

How many days since we've spoken

How many times have you tried

To mend the pieces of my broke-broken heart

Don't tell me everything's over

Don't take the sun from my eye

It's much too late to be alone
