I'm finding out how hot
|
an old flame can burn.
|
You're a feeling I haven't forgot,
|
the love I can't unlearn.
|
You've become a memory
|
I can't live without.
|
You'll always be a fire
|
I can't put out.
|
|
I don't know how to handle
|
the dream you left behind.
|
It's like a lighted candle
|
Burning up my mind.
|
At least I'm happy knowing
|
What love is all about.
|
You'll always be a fire
|
I can't put out.

|
Embers to ashes,
|
That's how it should be.
|
You’d think by now my heart would know,
|
And it could set you free.
|
The things I've tried, the tears I've cried,
|
I guess there's no doubt
|
You'll always be a fire
|
I can't put out
|
|
I don't know how to handle
|
The dream you left behind.
|
It's like a lighted candle
|
Burning up my mind.
|
At least I'm happy knowing
|
What love is all about.
|
You'll always be a fire
|
I can't put out.
|
|
You'll always be a fire
|
I can't put out....
