We`ll Sweep Out The Ashes — текст песни (Emmylou Harris)

(Joyce Allsup)

We know it`s wrong to let this fire burn between us
We`ve got to stop this wild desire in you and in me
So we`ll let the flame burn once again until the thrill is gone
Then we`ll sweep out the ashes in the morning

We`re two people caught up in the flame that has to die out soon
I didn`t mean to start this fire and neither did you
So tonight when you hold me tight we`ll let the fire burn on
And we`ll sweep out the ashes in the morning

Each time when we meet we both agree that it`s for the last time
But out of your arms I`m out of my mind
So we`ll taste the thrill of stolen love tonight until the dawning
And we`ll sweep out the ashes in the morning

We`re two people caught up in the flame that has to die out soon
I didn`t mean to start this fire and neither did you
So tonight when you hold me tight we`ll let the fire burn on
And we`ll sweep out the ashes in the morning

Yes we`ll taste the thrill of stolen love tonight until the dawning
And we`ll sweep out the ashes
We`ll sweep out the ashes
We`ll sweep out the ashes in the morning
