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 someone that I'm not
We can't stoke a fire that we ain't got
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 In every life there comes a time
When there are no more tears to cry
We must leave someone dear behind
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
