After the Fire Is Gone

You never know what the moment means
Till it's finally gone
You burned so fast, you put out the flame
Tell me, what went wrong?

How do you get back
To the heat of yesterday?
How do you live feelin'
Like you're dying more each day?

After the fire is gone
After the fire is gone

You had the whole world at your feet
And you stood so tall
You played the game, won too many times
Now you've lost it all

What got you started
Now is a million miles away
You wake up only to find
That you're a little bit too late

After the fire is gone
After the fire is gone
After the fire is gone

World keeps turnin', life keeps burnin'
After the fire is gone
(After the fire is gone)
World keeps rollin' on and on
And on and on and on

After the fire is gone
After the fire is gone
After the fire is gone

World keeps turnin', life keeps burnin'
After the fire is gone
(After the fire is gone)
World keeps rollin' on and on
And on and on and on
(After the fire is gone)

World keeps turnin', life keeps burnin'
After the fire is gone
(After the fire is gone)
World keeps rollin' on and on
And on and on and on
(After the fire is gone)

It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone
After the fire is gone
(After the fire is gone)
It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone
After the fire is gone
(After the fire is gone)
