Sparks Going Up
Style: Soul waltz

[Verse 1]
Smoke is climbing past the pines
Sparks are lifting toward the blue
Every ember finds its way up
And somehow I keep finding you

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need the fire to roar
Just this warmth is plenty for me
Something is rising, and it's leaning

[Chorus]
Effie, you're the calm in all this glowing
Not loud, not heavy, just clean and true
Effie, when the sparks go drifting skyward
I keep my eyes on nothing else but you

[Verse 2]
The branches hold the dark up high
Light moves slow across your face
I've watched a hundred fires burn
None of them held your kind of grace

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need the fire to roar
Just this warmth is plenty for me
Something is rising, and it's leaning

[Chorus]
Effie, you're the calm in all this glowing
Not loud, not heavy, just clean and true
Effie, when the sparks go drifting skyward
I keep my eyes on nothing else but you

[Bridge]
No need for anything bigger than this
No need to chase a brighter view
I'd sit here till the whole thing's ashes
Long as I'm sitting here with you

[Chorus]
Effie, you're the calm in all this glowing
Not loud, not heavy, just clean and true
Effie, when the sparks go drifting skyward
I keep my eyes on nothing else but you

[Outro]
The smoke will settle, sparks will fade
But I'll still be right here loving you
