A Keeper for Every Flame lyrics

[Verse 1]
She says it's been so long, she can't remember when
The mention of his name didn't make her feel again
That everything is possible and everyday a brand new start
Yeah, love's something powerful when it finds a willing heart

[Chorus]
Sometimes it's a fire burning out of control
Sometimes it's a candle burning long and low
All these years she never let it go
There's a keeper for every flame

[Verse 2]
There was someone in his past
That he hasn't gotten over yet
Each day's like the last
He just misses what he can't forget

[Chorus]
It's just an empty space
Where something used to be
Now he guards the gate but he's lost the key
So no one enters but no one leaves
There's a keeper for every flame

[Bridge]
I thought my heart had broken
But it was just a little bruised
I thought love had spoken
But I guess I was just confused
[Chorus]
Sometimes we were a fire burning out of control
Sometimes we were nothing but a candle glow
But it never died, baby, how I know
There's a keeper for every flame
