about

A song about a love that has died and the hope that one day it will reignite

lyrics

I never had dreams of being a wealthy man
I'd spend it in a day
Didn't need no suit or fancy car
To carry you away
Did all your dreams come true
I tried my best to be the man for you
But when that flame goes out
We're embers on the wind

So walk away
The fire burned out
There's nothing more to say
How could we be so wrong
The darkest day
When the smoke clears
And the years get washed away
Our love kept me hanging on and on
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh

We're embers on the wind
Scattering down these empty roads tonight
We were the candle burning twice as bright
Lover's dreams left dying in the rain
We're embers on the wind

All I ever wanted was out of reach
That's the price I have to pay
Can you find it in your heart to try again
Or will I wait in vain
Is there someone on your mind
A silent thief, a shadow from behind
And when his bullet strikes me down
We're embers on the wind

So walk away
The fire burned out
There's nothing more to say
How could we be so wrong
The darkest day
When the smoke clears
And the years get washed away
Our love kept me hanging on and on
Woah oh oh
Woah oh oh

We're embers on the wind
Scattering down these empty roads tonight
We were the candle burning twice as bright
Lover's dreams left dying in the rain
We're embers on the wind

Lay me down and leave me in the dark
Waiting here for the spark
That lights our love again

We're embers on the wind
Embers on the wind
Embers on the wind
Yeah

Scattering down these empty roads tonight
We were the candle burning twice as bright
Lover's dreams left dying in the rain
We're embers on the wind

Lay me down and leave me in the dark
Waiting here for the spark
That lights our love again

We're embers on the wind
Embers on the wind
Embers on the wind
Embers on the wind
Yeah, embers on the wind
Ohhhhh

Lay me down and leave me in the dark
Waiting here for the spark
That lights our love again
