Keeper of the Flame

Love that dies will rise again
 From the ashes of despair
 Phoenix rising with romantic flare
 Once more love will reign

 When hearts are broken and love is lost
 Embers will continue to show
 Waiting for a spark from the heart
 To ignite loves divine glow

 Like distant stars  with twinkling gleam
 Upon a flicker a wish to claim
 Lost in a galaxy of an enchanted dream
 Where passionate hearts keep the flame
