The Ashes Of My Heart
Composer(s): Jeff Branen - Arthur Lange



The day is dying, the years are flying 
The while I'm sighing, because of you 
I'm sad and lonely, I'm thinking only of someone's eyes of blue 
Of someone's kisses too

Among the roses, where love reposes 
My heart discloses, what you should know 
Alone I sigh, dear 
For you and I, dear, once loved each other so 
'Twas in the long ago

In the ashes of my heart fires of love no longer burn 
Still it seems I feel a start at the thought of your return 
'Tho it's years since last we met and we're doomed to live apart
There's a spark of hope still burning 
But it's buried somewhere in the ashes of my heart
