Lyrics

THE COAL & THE FLAME
(Man is the Coal, Woman is the Flame)

She - used to tell me stories
Written in songs but I never learned the words
All about how
She was lost and lonely
All about why
She was trying to be heard

Gone away, she couldn't stay
All the tears that I cried
Never eased her pain
On the day when she flew away
Love was gone
I'm the Coal, I have lost my flame

I was so hard to talk to
Many a time I just would not talk at all
Those were the times
When I should have listened
To about why
She was trying to be heard

Gone away, she couldn't stay
All the tears that I cried
Never eased her pain
On the day when she flew away
Love was gone
I'm the Coal, I have lost my flame

Gone away, she couldn't stay
All the tears that I cried
Never eased her pain
On the day when she flew away
Love was gone
I'm the Coal, I have lost my flame
