-- Copyright Lyrics 2024 Jocki
Music by Suno

I sit beside the fading fire
watching cooling embers die
I know that I should fan the flames
instead I stare into the night.
The cold around creeps up my body
all I can do is think of you
I thought we had a good thing going
Now I dont know if that was true.

I hear the echoes of the past
and hope to hear your voice again
In the end we couldn't last
I always thought I was your man.
When I recall this awful night
and how I begged you here to stay
I thought I saw you hesitate
and hoped, you came back the next day

[CHORUS]
I sit here, staring at the fire
look how the flames would starve and die
seems like I watch our fading love,
your final turn and last goodbye.
We both were strong for many years
now all what's left are thoughts and fears.

[VERSE]
My Darling, you did not return
give us a chance to talk this through
with all this lonely time to burn
I have no clue what I can do
Most of the times the waters calmed
I had to wait a day or two
But this time there seems no return
Maybe this thing is really through.

[CHORUS]
[SOLO]

[VERSE]
This time I heard the windows rattle
as you slammed our exit door.
This was not a minor battle
like a hundred times before
A week has gone and I'm still waiting
looks like this time it's not the same
Maybe this was our final battle
and I'll be waiting here in vain.

[CHORUS]
