Faron Young
After The Fire Is Gone
[Verse 1]
Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes
After the fire is gone
[Verse 2]
The bottle is almost empty
The clock just now struck ten
Darling I had to call you
To our favorite place again
[Verse 3]
We know it's wrong for us to meet
But the fire's gone out at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes
After the fire is gone
[Verse 4]
Your lips are warm and tender
And your arms hold me just right
Sweet words of love you remember
That the one at home's forgot
[Verse 5]
Each time we say it's last time
Oh but we keep a hanging on
And there's nothing cold as ashes
After the fire is gone
