Keeper Of The Flame lyrics

We pass in the hallway I stop to kiss you on the cheek But you're in a hurry You've got a deadline you must meet You're working so much these days You don't have time to spend with me But I keep hoping we might get back To the way love used to be I am the keeper of the flame You only helped me build the fire And it's getting harder every day To make our love burn with desire 'Cause If I left it up to you Only ashes would remain When it needs shelter from the rain I am the keeper of the flame We live here together But I feel we're worlds apart When I tell you I love you You never listen with your heart I may look like I'm doing fine But I'm dying deep inside 'Cause I've done all that I can do To try and keep this love alive I am the keeper of the flame You only helped me build the fire And it's getting harder every day To make our love burn with desire 'Cause If I left it up to you Only ashes would remain When it needs shelter from the rain I am the keeper of the flame Oh, when it needs shelter from the rain I am the keeper of the flame
