| 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 |
