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 something 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
Where there are no more tears to
cry
We must leave something 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
