But no flame burns forever, oh no You and I both know this all too well And most don't even last the night One last time Just one last time With the twilight No they don't, they say they don't Without holding back my mind Oh babe, meet me in Tompkins

It just gets all the way to me It ain't like smoke gets in your clothes Naw, it cuts through my skin and digs in way down deep Soaks in like rain Burns like a flame Takes ahold of my soul underneath Something 'bout George Jones on the headphones Truth

'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer So leave that click in my head But you know your desire Don't hold a glass over the flame Don't let your heart grow cold I will call you by name I will share your road But hold me fast, hold me fast And hold me fast, hold

Hold the phone Got me foaming at the knees Saw the flame, tasted sin You burned me once again Cut the cord, she's a creep Way back way back way back I've been trying real hard

Tonight your memory burns like a fire With everyone it grows higher and higher I can't get over it, I just can't put out this love I just sit in these flames and pray that you'll come back Close my eyes tightly, hold on and hope that I'm dreaming Come

A spirit with a vision Is a dream with a mission Hold your fire Keep it burning bright Hold the flame 'Til the dream ignites Is a dream with a mission I hear their passionate music Read the words

When you meet a boy That you like a lot And you fall in love But he loves you not If a flame should start When he holds you near Better keep your heart Out of danger dear For the way of love

The smoking gun is what I’ve found The dirt I have on you is the ground Wish that I didn’t have to see a confidant as an enemy Now the truth is a ball and chain Holding my conscience to the flame Covered up, but still I know The secret of the life you’re

You touch me like a razor blade I wish there was some other way right now, oh oh Like a house on fire we're up in flames I'd burn here if that's what it takes To let you know I won't let go of you, oh oh Of you (oh oh) So I'll just hold you like a hand

Hold the phone You got me foamin' at the knees Saw the flame tasted sin You burned me once again Cut the cord, she's a creep I've been tryin' real hard
