(Verse 1)
Flames don’t dance like they did before
Just a couple embers glowin’ on the shore
Wood’s burned down to a quiet red
Like the thoughts runnin’ through my head
(Verse 2)
Cool night air and a gentle breeze
Rustlin’ soft through the cypress trees
Line’s still out but I ain’t expectin’ much
Just lettin’ go with every touch
(Chorus)
Yeah this last fire’s fadin’ low tonight
Just like these days driftin’ outta sight
Every spark that rises, every one that dies
Feels like time sayin’ its goodbyes
But I ain’t gonna fight it, I’ll let it be
Take what it gave and carry it with me
Yeah the flames might fade, but I know somehow
This peace is gonna stick around
(Verse 3)
Beer’s gone warm sittin’ by my side
Don’t even care, just enjoyin’ the ride
Hear the frogs singin’ their last song
Like they know I won’t be here long
(Bridge)
Ain’t about holdin’ on too tight
It’s knowin’ when to let things feel just right
This kind of calm don’t ever stay
But it don’t ever fully fade away
(Chorus)
Yeah this last fire’s fadin’ low tonight
Just like these days driftin’ outta sight
Every spark that rises, every one that dies
Feels like time sayin’ its goodbyes
But I ain’t gonna fight it, I’ll let it be
Take what it gave and carry it with me
Yeah the flames might fade, but I know somehow
This peace is gonna stick around
(Outro)
One last glow, then it’s all just smoke
One last night before I go
But in the dark, I can still see clear…
I found a little somethin’ out here
