Firelight Reunion

(hummmmm) Ten years ago you were holding her hand

My cousin's boyfriend, I was just making plans

But the phone lines got warm on that very first night

Trying to heal you,

trying to fix up the fight

We went out on the lake,

the summer was bright

Then the engine went up in a spark of red light

They made it through fire,

but the embers ran cold

While we kept a friendship

that never grew old

Time spun its wheels,

you married someone new

I held the hand of the closest friend to you

Just parallel lines

waiting for the bend

It took ten long years to find our way home

Through the fire on the water and paths left alone

From the very first call,

we were written in time

Now your hand is in mine (yeah)

We were keepers of secrets,

keepers of space

Just watching the seasons rewrite every face Till the timing was right

and the dust settled down

It took ten long years to find our way home

Through the fire on the water and paths left alone

From the very first call,

we were written in time

Now your hand is in mine

Ten years of waiting

My friend,

my love (ahhhh)
