| I believe I’ve attempted every move that I know
|
| I was sure that by now you’d have let yourself go
|
| I’ve been living my heart out, and without any shame
|
| Gotten down on my knees just to kindle this flam
|
| But tonight I am down to the wire
|
| I’ve been striking these matches in vain
|
| Got a whole lt of smoke but no fire
|
| 'Cause you got a heart full of rain
|
| Now somewhere in your history there’s a reason or two
|
| Why you won’t let a body get close to you
|
| Why the truth that I whisper always sounds like a lie
|
| Why you’re drowning inside from the tears you don’t cry
|
| But your eyes have never been dryer
|
| And you smile like you’re felling no pain
|
| Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
|
| 'Cause you got a heart full of rain
|
| I had hoped I could open the heart that you hide
|
| 'Cause it sure needs a little sunshine inside
|
| But tonight I am down to the wire
|
| I’ve been striking these matches in vain
|
| Got a whole lot of smoke but no fire
|
| 'Cause you got a heart full of rain |
