Burning in the Flame of Love Lyrics

BURNIN" IN THE FLAME OF LOVE

You"re looking at a man
Trying hard to make a stand

On his own, livin" alone

I"ve been in love before

In and out of love before

My heart has been tossed around

All over this town

I was doing real good at not falling in love

When into my life walked you

But I should have known

Not to get so close

Cause now, I"m burnin" in the flame of love

Once again I"m burnin" in the flame of love

From the moment that I rise

Til I lay me down to sleep

Everywhere your face I see

And then in my dreams

There"s a ringin" in my ears
There"s a poundin" in my brain

My poor heart is racing

Racing blindly straight into love

I was doing real good at not falling in love

When into my life walked you

But I should have known

Not to get so close

Cause now, I"m burnin" in the flame of love

Once again I"m burnin" in the flame of love

I never thought I"d live to see the day when

I"d be burnin" in the flame of love again

But I know what comes next
All the promises that will one day be broken

Hearts will be broken

And, ain"t I the perfect fool

Cause I know what love can do

But I still need to touch the fire

I still need to stand in the fire

But as time goes by, and the seasons turn

It"s a lesson I"ll never learn

Cause in my heart I knew

That when I got next to you

That I"d be burnin" in the flame of love

Once again I"m burnin" in the flame of love

Once again I"m burnin" in the flame of love
