George Strait - Fire I Can't Put Out lyrics

I'm finding out how hot

an old flame can burn.

You're a feeling I haven't forgot,

the love I can't unlearn.

You've become a memory

I can't live without.

You'll always be a fire

I can't put out.

I don't know how to handle

the dream you left behind.

It's like a lighted candle

Burning up my mind.

At least I'm happy knowing

What love is all about.

You'll always be a fire

I can't put out.

--- Instrumental ---

Embers to ashes,

That's how it should be.

You'd think by now my heart would know,

And it could set you free.

The things I've tried, the tears I've cried,

I guess there's no doubt

You'll always be a fire

I can't put out

I don't know how to handle

The dream you left behind.

It's like a lighted candle

Burning up my mind.

At least I'm happy knowing

What love is all about.

You'll always be a fire

I can't put out.

You'll always be a fire

I can't put out....
