Embers Still Warm
Style: Bossa nova

[Verse 1]
The fire's low but it still spits
grey sparks landing where grass sits
damp ground holding what remains
you're the warmth that still remains

[Pre-chorus]
Everything else has turned to ash
every other spark's gone out fast
but this one holds, and so do you

[Chorus]
Nathaniel, you're the coal that stays lit
when the rest goes cold and quits
Nathaniel, steady through the dark
you're my last and truest spark

[Verse 2]
Iron bricks won't hold the heat
but you're the warmth I keep to meet
the grass stays damp, the night stays long
but you're the one thing constant, strong

[Pre-chorus]
Everything else has turned to ash
every other spark's gone out fast
but this one holds, and so do you

[Chorus]
Nathaniel, you're the coal that stays lit
when the rest goes cold and quits
Nathaniel, steady through the dark
you're my last and truest spark

[Bridge]
No need to build the fire back tall
just need you here, that's all
some loves burn loud, then disappear
yours just stays, quiet, near

[Chorus]
Nathaniel, you're the coal that stays lit
when the rest goes cold and quits
Nathaniel, steady through the dark
you're my last and truest spark

[Outro]
Grass stays damp, the fire stays low
you're the ember I won't let go
