His rocking chair...won't rock tonight...
She'll lie awake...till the morning light...
Living alone...after all this time...
he may be gone...but the fire of love survives...
Two people loved...now there is one...
Where will they find...the strength to carry on...
What will they do?...Where will they turn...
when there's still a fire...and only one's left to burn.
Left to burn...in a fire full of love...
With only...one heart burning up...
left to burn...till the memory is gone...
Till the fire burns down to the soul...
Till there's no more...love...left to burn.
They built a lifetime...raised a family...grown and gone...
He holds her hand...but she don't understand...
Her yesterday's gone...only darkness from now on...
His loving words "goodbye"...will be gone...before the dawn
Left to burn...in a fire full of love...
With only...one heart burning up...
left to burn...till the memory is gone...
Till the fire burns down to the soul...
Till there's no more...love...left to burn.
He was her man..he fought the war...
after the battle cries...some must cry some more
her hero is gone...he'll never return
there's still a fire...only one left to burn
