When the Fire Burns Low
When the fire burns low and the embers flare out
the cold and lonliness will creep in
And the sorrow will begin
The emptiness will find you there shivering
The saddness will watch you withering
when the fire burns low and the embers flare out
You will be there alone without that special someone
And the tears will come
Utter saddness shall find your heart
Your soul and spirit shall slip apart
So when the fire burns low and the embers flare out
I will be there
But only because I care
