You say you're dying for me
In order to die, you must first be alive
You say your heart's broken with the strain
That when we're apart, your bleeding heart has left a stain
And when you feel a flicker
Throw another log on
Keep the homefires burning
For me, for me
You say it's getting colder now for you
So when you feel the ice thicken, keep the sunny-side up
So come on now, lift your head
If you're going to weather the storm, you'd better wrap yourself up
Warm, warm
And when you feel a flicker
Throw another log on
Keep the homefires burning
For me, for me
You say you have, say you have needs
And you have disapproving thoughts about other men
Playing with your conscience, like, can you or can't you
Last the pace, have what it takes or risk all that's at stake
And when you feel a flicker
Throw another log on
And when you feel a flicker
Throw another log on
Keep the homefires burning
Keep the homefires burning
For me, for me
