Ashes All Fall (A Song for John)

The shell of a man, youthful inside
Feeds us the hope of returning life
Pull me in close, tell me no lies
Time steals the words we need to say goodbye

I say "I love you" through all of the tears
As I think back through these ignorant years
I took you for granted, I'm sorry my friend
Fate reprimands me as you meet your end

Feel my love
Feel my loss
Feel my heart beat against my cross
Feel my pain and just hold me tight
Let the ashes all fall as the day fades to night

One call of warning and dread fills my heart
Looking at her, I don't know where to start
Love always binds us wherever we are
Destiny calls us to fulfill our part

Feel my love
Feel my loss
Feel my heart beat against my cross
Feel my pain and just hold me tight
Let the ashes all fall as the day fades to night

Goodnight to you, my glass shall I raise
To honor your life and to offer you praise
For all of the joy and the love you convey
In your smile full of wisdom that outshines the pain

Feel my love
Feel my loss
Feel my heart beat against my cross
Feel my pain and just hold me tight
Let the ashes all fall as the day fades to night
Let the ashes all fall as you move towards the light...
