Keeper Of The Flame

(terri clark)



We pass in the hallway

I stop to kiss you on the cheek

But you're in a hurry

You've got a deadline you must meet

You're working so much these days

You don't have time to spend with me

But i keep hoping we might get back

To the way love used to be



I am the keeper of the flame

You only helped me build the fire

And it's getting harder every day

To make our love burn with desire

'cause if i left it up to you

Only ashes would remain

When it needs shelter from the rain

I am the keeper of the flame



We live here together

But i feel we're worlds apart

When i tell you i love you

You never listen with your heart

I may look like i'm doing fine

But i'm dying deep inside

'cause i've done all that i can do

To try and keep this love alive



I am the keeper of the flame

You only helped me build the fire

And it's getting harder every day

To make our love burn with desire

'cause if i left it up to you

Only ashes would remain

When it needs shelter from the rain

I am the keeper of the flame



Oh, when it needs shelter from the rain

I am the keeper of the flame
