Well, I finally got your letter today
|
I think I understand what you had to say
|
Your message came through loud and clear
|
You gotta get away from me and away from here
|
|
Tell myself I'm over you; then I'm just a liar
|
'Cause every time I think of you, fills me with desire
|
Love is like a burnin' flame, keeps on gettin' higher
|
And I can't put out this fire
|
|
Well, I don't know what went wrong with you and me
|
Sometimes you get so close, you just can't see
|
Now I'm out here standing in the rain
|
Thinkin' 'bout us and living with the pain
|
|
If I could only talk to you, then you'd understand
|
If I could hold you close to me, you'd know I'm still your man
|
Love is like a burnin' flame, keeps on gettin' higher
|
And I can't put out this fire
|
Can't put out this fire
|
|
You know, breakin' up is harder than it sounds
|
People leave, but love still hangs around
|
Memories refuse to go away
|
They follow you and haunt you night and day
|
|
Love like ours will never die, can't put out this fire
|
'Cause when I think of you and I, fills me with desire
|
Love is like burnin' flame, keeps on gettin' higher
|
And I can't put out this fire
|
Can't put out this fire
|
Can't put out this fire
|
Can't put out this fire
|
|
Oh, no matter how hard I try
|
No gettin' over you, no matter what I do
|
There's no gettin' over you, no matter what I do
|
Can't put out this fire
|
No, I can't put out this fire
|
|
Some things will never die, some things like you and I
|
Some things will never die, some things like you and I
|
No, I can't put out this, no, I can't put out this,
|
No, I can't put out this, no, I, no, I, no...
