LYRICS
Ashes and Dust
©2019 Kathryn R. Gordon

Verse 1:
We've seen the better side of three short years
Just getting through the longest two in five.
Something changed along the way - we're no longer rootin' for the other,
On the fightin' line together. The battles have come home.
Where'd it all go wrong?

Chorus
When I look at you, and I see those tears, I know your heart is breaking,
When you look at me, can you feel my fear, that this love we had is faded.
It's like ashes and dust, when we look at us.

Verse 2:
That wedding day when all our dreams came true,
With hearts on fire, we'd never see the end.
Then the night that broke the tie, when we fought till early in the morning.
We never caught the warning. Now we're here alone.
In the same home.

Chorus
When I look at you, and I see those tears, I know your heart is breaking,
When you look at me, can you feel my fear, that this love we had is faded.
It's like ashes and dust, when we look at us.

Bridge:
I tried to forgive..............you tried to forget.
That fire burned until nothing was left.

Chorus/End
When I look at you, and I see those tears, I know your heart is breaking,
When you look at me, can you feel my fear, that this love we had is faded.
When we look at us
It's just ashes and dust
