My Bonfire

My Bonfire

From your penthouse high above
Where you live now with your love
Can you see my golden bonfire burning bright
Maybe somehow you will know
What that glow is down below
For I'm burning your love letters here tonight

I feed 'em to the hungry flame
And watch it take command
Each letter warmed me when it came
But now they're cold in hand

Bonfire, bonfire, hear my plea
Blaze away a memory
Burn this yearning from my heart
And set me free

My bonfire's a bitter joke
Your love was just the same
I watch my dreams go up in smoke
My soul is in the flame

Bonfire, bonfire, hear my plea
Blaze away a memory
Burn this yearning from my heart
And set me free
