Embers

When we began it was all
Panting and passionate claws
Echoes in residence halls
We couldn't help ourselves
Promises we couldn't keep
Festival love in the Tennessee heat
We made a lot of things, didn't we
You and I didn't survive
There will always be embers
Where there was love
Fiery as us
Embers embers
And we can never fan that flame I
I wouldn't want to anyways
Enough just to have
Warm memories
Embers
You took a summer job in your hometown
Played baseball, showed me around
It could have been enough
Sometimes I think about
That old couple next door
They said 'now don't you fall out of love'
We couldn't help ourselves
Promises we couldn't keep
Festival love in the Tennessee heat
We made a lot of things, didn't we
You and I didn't survive
There will always be embers
Where there was love
Fiery as us
Embers embers
And we can never fan that flame
I wouldn't want to anyways
Enough to have warm memories
Embers
I don't miss you like that
It's just nice to look back
At an ex and feel blessed for a change
You taught me how to recognize love when it comes my way ...my way
You and I
Didn't survive
There will always be embers
Where there was love
Fiery as us
Embers
Embers and...
