I’m stuck here with this old song too tired to write a new one

Baby you just wear me out

But not in the same way like you used to in the old days

But that’s ok, no harm and no foul

'Cause every fire burns out

Every dream goes south at least it feels that way to me

And from where I stand I’m pretty damn sure there’ll be no happy endings here

No use cryin’ about the future we will never see

I gave up trying to convince you to believe in me

Every fire burns out

A single rose on the windshield and a love note you wrote

Kisses silhouetted ‘gainst the moon

Still so much of you is a part of me too

A flame so bright and so blue

But every fire burns out

Every dream goes south at least it feels that way to me

From where I stand I’m pretty damn sure we’re no exception to the rule

No use cryin about tomorrow's we will never see

I give up trying to convince you what you mean to me

Every fire burns out

There's a world of difference between lonely and alone

Got to learn to separate the two

Hard, hard lessons we've got to learn them on our own

But I know and you know we do

Every fire burns out every dream goes south and yet we try so hard

When everything we love, everything we touch just seems to slip away

I'd hold your hand I'd take your hand but it's just too, too much

But I will always keep a candle lit for you and me

Even when the fire burns out

Every fire burns out

Every dream goes south at least it feels that way to me

And from where I stand I'm pretty damn sure they'll be no happy endings here

No use cryin' 'bout the future we will never see

I gave up trying to convince you to believe in me

Guess every fire burns out
