Lyrics
[verse]
Close the door and let the world go quiet
Just your heartbeat starting up a riot
Tell me softly if this fire is real
Or just a moment neither of us can feel
[verse]
I've been standing at the edge of saying
Everything my careful heart's been weighing
Are you certain, are you sure this glows
Longer than a single candle knows
[chorus]
Is this burning an eternal flame
Will it carry through the years the same
Hold my hand and tell me it won't fade
Say this fire is the one that stays
[verse]
Some love flickers, gone before the dawn
Some love lingers long after it's gone
I don't want a spark that disappears
I want the kind that outlasts all our years
[chorus]
Is this burning an eternal flame
Will it carry through the years the same
Hold my hand and tell me it won't fade
Say this fire is the one that stays
[bridge]
Close your eyes, give me your hand
Let me feel if you understand
This isn't a question I ask in vain
I need to know about this flame
[chorus]
Is this burning an eternal flame
Will it carry through the years the same
Hold my hand and tell me it won't fade
Say this fire is the one that stays
