about

For Betsy - and everyone who has had to leave someone dear behind for a time or for longer.

lyrics

Lily Soft in amber light

Holding back the sleepless night

I'll have this time even when you go

Whispers caught in the fire's glow.

I forget what I have lost

Touching you I forget the cost

Forget the pain of the tempest blow

In whispers caught in the fire's glow.

And when you rise to leave don't say good-bye

Don't brush my cheek and tell me some sweet lie

I'll keep this fire burning

I'll never bolt this door

Until that day when I hold you once more.

While you can, then, stay awhile

Touch and teach my lips to smile

Your eyes show worlds which I need to know

In whispers caught in the fire's glow.
