Burning Ember

(warm

hummmm)

Yeah,

listening close

I wrote these lines on a rainy Tuesday afternoon

Trying to trace the light that left the room too soon

Now the floorboards ache and the hallway keeps the sound

Of the beautiful quiet we finally found

And I try to call,

but my hands get cold

Still holding onto stories that we never told

(ahhhh, yeah)

'Cause you are the melody I cannot lose The honest color in

my darkest blues No matter where the road goes,

I will find my

way

To where your sweet song carries through the gray

We used to talk about the places we would go

In a tiny beat-up car that was moving slow

Now I'm pacing back and forth in this empty space

Trying to find a trace of your smiling face

But I won't give up

on the promise we made

Even when the summer starts to fade

(no, I won't)

'Cause you are the melody I cannot lose The honest color in

my darkest blues No matter where the road goes,

I will find my

way

To where your sweet song carries through the gray

Carries through the gray

(yeah,

always)
