The Flame of Love

 

The flame of love is brightly burning

 Where once the ashes lay to cool.

I lay my head upon your shoulder

And wonder if you ever knew.

 

Did you long to hold my body?

Did you wonder why I cried?

You wanted so to make me love you

And save my life before I died.

 

Did you know my pain and sorrow?

Was not for another man?

For in my heart I've always loved you

But I did not understand.

 

Now we've put the past behind us

Into the future from this day

We'll be the best there is of lovers

We'll erase the past away.

 

( written for a pair of lovers, I knew a long time ago.)
