No Ash Will Burn. (Della Mae)

I have seen snow that fell in May

And I have seen rain on cloudless days

Somethings are always bound to change

There ain’t no ash will burn

.

Love is a precious thing I’m told

It burns just like West Virginia coal

But when the fire dies down it’s cold

There ain’t no ash will burn

.

You say this life is not your lot

Well I can’t be something that I’m not

We can’t stoke a fire that we ain’t got

There ain’t no ash will burn

.

In every life there comes a time

Where there are no more tears to cry

We must leave something dear behind

There ain’t no ash will burn

.

There is one lesson I have learned

There ain’t no ash will burn
