Pictures in the fire
Reflections of myself
Take a look in the mirror
What do I see
A portrait of me

Chorus:

And the smoke curls up the chimney
Sending messages of love
But you're so far away
So far away

This cold wintry evening
I curl up by the fire
I wonder what you're doing
I know we agreed
To part for a while

Chorus

So here I am alone again
Pretending that you're with me
I can't so no/she can't say no
And I can't let go/and she can't let go
I thought he'd never leave me

Turning round I see you
I know it's tonight
It's just my heart deceiving
A trick of the light

And the smoke curls up the chimney
Sending messages of love
If only you were with me
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh oooh / oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh with me

And I can't say no ... she can't say no
And I can't let go ... and she can't let go
Pretending that you're with me

So here I am alone again
Thought you'd never leave me
