After the Fire Is Gone

[Chorus: Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn, Loretta Lynn]
Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes
After the fire is gone

[Verse 1: Conway Twitty]
The bottle is almost empty
The clock just now struck ten
And darling I had to call you
To our favorite place again

[Verse 2: Loretta Lynn, Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn]
We know it's wrong for us to meet
But the fire's gone out at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes
After the fire is gone

[Chorus: Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn, Loretta Lynn]
Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes
After the fire is gone

[Verse 3: Loretta Lynn]
Your lips are warm and tender
Your arms hold me just right
Sweet words of love you remember
That the one at home forgot

[Verse 4: Conway Twitty, Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn]
Each time we say is the last time
But we keep hanging on
And there's nothing cold as ashes
After the fire is gone

[Chorus: Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn, Loretta Lynn]
Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothing cold as ashes
After the fire is gone
