The Roosevelts - Ashes lyrics

[Verse 1] Take this lantern and burn it down Scatter the ashes on holy ground We'll dance circles and sing around Praying for answers till the sun goes down [Chorus] I can't love you if you won't let go I can't lead you where you don't want to go This old house, well it's burning down And I don't want to find our ashes on the ground When the flames settle down [Verse 2] Crosses hanging in one room shack Whisper something that you can't take back I ain't seen a thing in my whole life Like a woman who loves a man that treats her right [Chorus] But I can't love you if you won't let go I can't lead you where you don't want to go This old house, well it's burning down And I don't want to find our ashes on the ground When the flames settled down [Bridge] I'm not leaving I'm not leaving Without you I'm not leaving I'm not leaving Without you… [Chorus] But I can't love you if you won't let go I can't lead you where you don't want to go This old house, well it's burning down And I don't want to find our ashes on the ground When the flames settled down
