I've done my best to find someone new But there's just no one who can stand next to you girl Now what on earth do you expect me to do You started a fire and I'm burning
I tried giving all the attention you demand 'Cause I can't take you needing more than just one man And now I walk these street holding my head in my hand And my world has stopped turning But the fire's still burning
I rode a train away thinking I'd stay low Hoping time would get me straight But just when I worked up the strength to forget The mirror told me it was too late I saw your face And it was a face I love
It was your face
Oh worked late at nights thinking you did the same Instead you sleep around and disgrace my good name It hurts me to know you're not even ashamed Who knows how long I'll last here alone
I'll just stare at the dark waiting for the phone Wishing I was ten thousand light years from home And the fire's getting out of control Even then I can't help but wondering You lit a fire and I'm burning
