The Fire of Love

[Verse 1]
The fire of love
Has burned me through
No vow ever made
That I wasn't given too

[Verse 2]
Now the boys are feeding
On every gift she brings
And I'm left alone to tremble
Like an adolescent king

[Verse 3]
Perfect hands
Claim what they will
Know how to hold a heart
Not being still

[Chorus 1]
And I've tried to settle in
Love her as she goes
But there's really nothing gentle
In the touch of one who knows

[Verse 4]
Fare thee well
True love of mine
May all your sweeter fruit
Cling forever to the vine

[Chorus 2]
The road is hard to follow
And I’m drifting too
But if you ever find the middle
I'll be waiting when you do

[Outro]
