The Oak Ridge Boys — Fear Of The Flame

There's a time that I recall When I tried to give it all And got burned by the flame That I thought would keep me warm So I promised myself then That I'd never care again And I would not forget that roses have thorns Don't go near the fire it will hurt you, it will burn you Love and desire only lead to pain The heart that gives in becomes ashes in the wind O but you came along and cured my fear of the flame I learned from your love Just how wrong I was When you came along And carried all my fears away So gentle and tender Cinder by cinder I hardly remember the fool who used to say Don't go near the fire it will hurt you, it will burn you Love and desire only lead to pain The heart that gives in becomes ashes in the wind O but you came along and cured my fear of the flame With your love I know Through your eyes I see It's a lonely, lonely heart Who'd believe Don't go near the fire it will hurt you, it will burn you Love and desire only lead to pain The heart that gives in becomes ashes in the wind O but you came along and cured my fear of the flame Don't go near the fire it will hurt you, it will burn you Love and desire only lead to pain The heart that gives in becomes ashes in the wind O but you came along and cured my fear of the flame Don't go near the fire it will hurt you, it will burn you Love and desire only lead to pain The heart that gives in becomes ashes in the wind O but you came along and cured my fear of the flame
