Ember

Ember was alive My heart flew up so high I felt it rise in hope Flames lighting up the night sky Right then I knew My life could be lit through But lightness comes and goes And with embers you just never know The brightness while it lasts Is so beautiful and fast You'll make it to the sky But then you'll fall Enjoy the wild night Enjoy the ride of your life And be with it all I sit here with you In the darkness where you grew Where all is uncertainty What will this little ember be? It's the nature of fire Hold it too tight and it expires It needs space to breathe Just like all our hopes and dreams The brightness while it lasts Is so beautiful and fast You'll make it to the sky But then you'll fall Enjoy the wild night Enjoy the ride of your life And be with it all Little Ember you know In the end we let go The brightness while it lasts Is so beautiful and fast You'll make it to the sky But then you'll fall Enjoy the wild night Enjoy the ride of your life And be with it all
