in your eyes there was a fire

it burned warm and strong and bright

it was comforting and it beckoned me

to hold onto you tight

the fire, I found

was powered by love

that's what made it glow brighter

than the heavens above

when you were happy it shined

it glimmered and it glowed

it was ecstatic and enchanting

your love it showed

when you were sad it grew weak

I thought it would die

not seeing that happiness

made me cry

but the fire grew back

and that made me smile

it wasn't permanent

but it stayed for a while

when you were hurt

and when you were in pain

some of the fire died out

never to return again

I watched the fire

as it slowly died down

the pain kept growing

and no solution was found

now I look in your eyes

and the fire is gone

it dissolved into air

it dissolved with the Dawn

the sun of our love

has risen and has set

but loving you

I will never regret

being loved was the best feeling

that I've ever known

and even through this pain

my love for you has grown

if you ever decide

to try again

my broken heart

you would mend

now I wait quietly

for you to return

to my welcoming arms

for your body they yearn

I can't live without you

though I am to blame

to restart our love

you must first light its flame
