A love that is lost, and the memory that is kept alive by the light of a fire.

Firelight come into my dream tonight
Bring your warmth and little light
Our love grew within your smile
I look into you she’s there for awhile

Refrain

We made love by the firelight
had a glass of wine, then a kiss
she then whispered in my ear
and by your light our love soared
To be close to you; a serenity I feel
In the stillness of your light, my heart she did steal
There is love, We made love by you firelight
The future, this love, an idea so slight

Refrain 

We made love by the firelight
had a glass of wine, then a kiss
she then whispered in my ear
and by your light our love soared
The dawn was breaking as we slept
and you, fire, were gone when we woke
Don’t go again firelight, I need you
I have this memory of her because of you

Refrain

We made love by the firelight
had a glass of wine, then a kiss
she then whispered in my ear
and by your light our love soared
There’s just embers on the hearth
The fire light that once had a shimmer
Now I know she is gone;  with my heart
because all the light is so much dimmer

Refrain 

We made love by the firelight
had a glass of wine, then a kiss
she then whispered in my ear
and by your light our love soared
by you light our love soared
