Lyrics
VERSE
She built a fire, sat by the phone
The next thing she knew it was coming up dawn
She stood up, looked around
Saw nothing – just her boots on the ground
CHORUS
(Now) She’s cold and so alone
The fire they had built has surely gone out
These few days were the longest she’d known
And they left her with no doubt
So this morning she burned the memories
VERSE
Their years together, far less than forever
Not what she planned; he’d always be her man
But he left without warning like a man without a spouse
All she left him was his half the house
Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/VERSE
With love now on fire, molten to the core
She said goodbye to what she was before
She turned to see the car in the drive
But whoever it was, she did not recognize
Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Yes, this cold morning she burned the memories
