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 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
