George Strait - A 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
