It only takes a spark, to get a fire burning.
It only takes your love, to set my heart on fire.
And when that fires burning, everyone feels its warmth.
A warmth which is felt deeply as it is on the surface.
How long can I keep it burning.
A day, a month, a year?
What fuel can I use to burn.
Perhaps my love?
Perhaps my affection?
Perhaps my distance?
I am so far, yet feel it's strength and beuty.
It shall never burn out,
It shall never be dulled,
It shall burn for as long as I am here with you.
Let the light shine forever.
