Tears don't put out the fire
We can never change what's happened
I guess it's time to face the fact
you're out of my life forever
and baby nothing's gonna bring you back
another lonely night is callin'
and in my heart the rain keeps falling
But tears don't put out the fire
your memory only fans the flames
tears don't put out the fire
burning in my heart, to see you again
In my world time has no meaning
you're gone a year, you're gone a day
I've traveled long and hard and far
but I'm never gonna get away
'cause if I stop to dream you're in it
your love is with me every minute
And tears don't put out the fire
your memory only fans the flames
tears don't put out the fire
burning in my heart, to feel you again
My arms are aching to hold you
I miss you every day I live
and tears don't put out the fire
or the love, I got to give
(SOLO)
If you could only walk back into my life
if I could hear your sweet voice one more time
and stop drowning in a lonely dawn
find a little peace, but I get no release
And tears don't put out the fire
your memory only fans the flames
tears don't put out the fire
burning in my heart, to see you again
My arms are aching to hold you
I miss you every day I live
and tears don't put out the fire
or the love, I got to, I got to give
Tears don't put out the fire
if you could only walk back into my life
tears don't put out the fire
if I could hear your sweet voice,
one more time
tears don't put out the fire
put out the fire
tears don't put out the fire
