Home Fires Burning

Carolyn Arends


I still remember our first December 
The warmth of your touch and the spark in your eyes 
We took desire and built us a fire 
I know it will last us the rest of our lives 
So let it rain, let it storm 
We'll keep believing 'cause love keeps us warm 

Chorus 
We are making our way, we are twisting and turning 
Through it all we can see 
That every day we are living and learning 
We're finding a way to keep 
The home fires burning 

Days turn to years, we live through our tears 
We laugh at our fears 'cause we've known from the start 
Though life makes us older it can't make us colder 
As long as the flame still remains in our hearts 
So let it rain, let it storm 
We'll keep believing 'cause love keeps us warm 

Repeat chorus 

Sure there are days when some misunderstanding 
Lets in a cold winter chill 
But the fire never dies 'cause you and I 
Always remember to tend to the embers 
And I know that we always will 
I know we always will 

Repeat chorus
