Building The Fire Lyrics

Ashes and embers, there's nothin' so sad
That's all that's left of the love that we had
‘Cause deep in the night on the wild side of town
You were buildin' the fire that burned it all down

Ain't nothin' here but a whisper of smoke
Driftin' away with the promise you broke
Our dreams fell apart the night that I found
You were buildin' the fire that burned it all down

We had a mansion, a love on the hill
Filled it with passion, faith, and good will
But, all that remains is just dust on the ground
‘Cause you were buildin' the fire that burned it all down You built the fire that burned it all down
In the arms of a stranger, there in the dark
With no thought of the days when you lit a spark
Well, everybody could see it for miles around
You were building the fire that burned it all down

We had a mansion, a love on the hill
Filled it with passion, faith, and good will
But, all that remains is just dust on the ground
‘Cause you were buildin' the fire that burned it all down
You built the fire that burned it all down

You lit the fire that burned it all down
