NO ASH WILL BURN

(by Walt Aldridge, 1989)


I have seen snow that fell in May
I have seen rain on a cloudless day
Some things are always bound to change
There ain't no ash will burn

	Love is a precious thing I'm told
	Burns just like West Virginia coal
	But when the fire dies down, it's cold
	There ain't no ash will burn

You say this life is not your lot
But I can't be something that I'm not
Can't stoke a fire that we ain't got
There ain't no ash will burn

	Love is a precious thing ...

In every life there comes a time
When there are no more tears to cry
We must leave something dear behind
There ain't no ash will burn

	Love is a precious thing ...

	If there is one thing I have learned
	There ain't no ash will burn
