Fleeting Flame

Your hand in mine we walked through the fire

Every step closer the flames grew higher

I laughed, you smiled, the world disappeared

A love so fierce no shadows interfered

But clocks they sneer, they tick, they betray

Time's a thief that takes it all away

Fleeting flame burn so bright

In the dark you were my light

Here then gone just a spark

But you'll forever own my heart

We painted skies with colors unnamed

Every kiss a stroke no two the same

Your voice it danced like notes on the breeze

We were a symphony lost to the seas

But fate's a storm, it bends, it breaks

(It bends, it breaks)

It rips apart all that it makes

Fleeting flame burn so bright

In the dark you were my light

Here then gone just a spark

But you'll forever own my heart
