lyrics

When I let you walk away
I didn't know how much I'd break
You took the keys, walked out the door
I knew then I was done for sure

But my heart's still on fire
Won't you put it out for me?
The smoke is filling up my lungs
Distorting everything I see

But I can't help but think this is what you had in mind
From the very start when you crossed the line
I'm not sorry I am not like those other guys
I just can't sleep and let it be

There was once a girl I knew
Bible in hand through and through
I was in love and so was she
Except it wasn't with me

Well she set my heart on fire
Til this day it still burns
I wish I could douse the flames
So maybe I wouldn't feel the pain

My heart's still on fire
Til this day it still burns
Though it burns me just as strong
It no longer burns for you
