Lyrics Ashes - The Longest Johns
Watch
that
old
fire
as
it
flickers
and
dies
That
once
blessed
the
household
and
lit
up
our
lives
It
shone
for
the
friends
and
the
clinking
of
glasses
I'll
tend
to
the
flame,
you
can
worship
the
ashes
Capture
the
wild
things
and
bring
them
in
line
And
own
what
was
never
your
right
to
confine
The
lives
and
the
loves
and
the
songs
are
what
matters
I'll
tend
to
the
flame,
you
can
worship
the
ashes
Do
you
feel
heavy?
Your
eyes
drop
with
grief
Your
spirit
is
wild
and
your
suffering
is
brief
So
never
you
buckle
and
bend
to
the
masses
I'll
tend
to
the
flame,
you
can
worship
the
ashes
Get
round
the
fire
with
a
glass
of
strong
ale
And
tell
us
a
story
from
beyond
the
pale
Bury
some
seeds
and
expect
some
strong
branches
I'll
tend
to
the
flame,
you
can
worship
the
ashes
Now
show
me
a
man
that
can
meet
all
his
needs
For
what
we
need
most
now
is
unity's
seed
A
common
old
song
for
all
creeds
and
all
classes
I'll
tend
to
the
flame,
you
can
worship
the
ashes
I'll
tend
to
the
flame
What
will
we
do
when
the
world
it
is
ending
And
time
it
is
halted
for
friend
and
for
foe?
Try
to
hold
on
to
the
time
as
it
passes
I'll
tend
to
the
flame,
you
can
worship
the
ashes
I'll
tend
to
the
flame,
you
can
worship
the
ashes
I'll
tend
to
the
flame,
you
can
worship
the
ashes
