Embers

All the time we had has passed
I know I'll never get it back
If I could only stop this track
And press rewind
You know I'd try

So calmly
The lights go down
So calmly
The flames burn out

I'm turning
I'm turning to dust
And you're burning
And you're burning to ash like a fire
And still the embers never die
And it's waning
In the smoke all our memories fading
Like our dreams that belong to the past
And yet the embers never die

If I could only hit reverse
Avoid the pain and change the verse
I'd write it about something else
And bring you back
Into my arms

So calmly
The love runs out

I'm turning
I'm turning to dust
And you're burning
And you're burning to ash like a fire
And still the embers never die
And it's waning
In the smoke all our memories fading
Like our dreams that belong to the past
And yet the embers never die

Yeah, all the things we didn't say
I couldn't guess, I should've stayed
And now I want you next to me
But all that's left's a memory
Yeah, all the things we didn't say
I couldn't guess, I should've stayed
And now the flame is all but gone
The song is done and I'm alone

I'm turning
I'm turning to dust
And you're burning
And you're burning to ash like a fire
And still the embers never die
And it's waning
In the smoke all our memories fading
Like our dreams that belong to the past
And yet the embers never die
