### [Intro] *(Spoken)* Some fires never really burn out... They just wait for the wind... --- ### [Verse 1] You came rollin' in like a summer storm Barefoot smile and a heart so warm Had me believin' every word you said Now I'm sleepin' with your ghost instead That old front porch still knows your name Every sunset feels the same There's a crack runnin' through this soul of mine Like an old oak split by time --- ### [Pre-Chorus] I've been prayin'... I've been tryin'... But this old heart keeps testifyin'... --- ### [Chorus] Love left ashes in the rain Still I call your name again Every scar keeps burnin' bright Like a flame that owns the night You can leave, you can run Hide beneath the midnight sun But every road comes back to where Love still hangs heavy in the air --- ### [Verse 2] That old Hammond cries behind the band Like it understands what I can't understand The guitar sings with a voice so rough Sometimes goodbye just ain't enough The river keeps on rollin' south Carryin' secrets no one talks about But every wave brings you to mind Like yesterday ain't left behind --- ### [Bridge] If I could turn this wheel around I'd meet you where the cypress bows down Trade every lonely mile I've known For one more night to bring you home --- ### [Guitar & Organ Solo] --- ### [Final Chorus] Love left ashes in the rain Still I'm wearin' all this pain Every heartbeat fans the fire Every memory climbs higher Maybe someday mercy comes Like thunder beatin' on the drums Till that day I'll stand my ground Where soul and sorrow both are found --- ### [Outro] *(Repeat, with ad-libs)* Ashes in the rain... Still callin' your name... Ashes in the rain... Lord... I'm still callin' your name...
