All this time
I thought you were satisfied
And I didn't know that you would wanna leave
But don't you put out the fire

You could've told me
If I'd done you wrong
Now I'm waiting and praying that you're not as good as gone
I could feel it
I confess
You couldn't hide that your eyes had told me everything before you left

Now I'm feeling
So strung out
You've got me buried in worry and I'm drowning all my sorrows in doubt
Got me hiding
From the pain
But I can't run from a gun that's shooting bullets that are calling my name

I left my heart in your hands
Don't put out the fire
Don't put out the fire
Don't put out the fire
Are you gonna burn me out?
Don't put out the fire

I couldn't stand it
When you left
Was it worth all the hurt you could've told me what you wanted instead
Now you're running
All over town
And the talk on the street's got me thinking that there's someone you've found
Now I'm so insecure
I need a little more

Don't put out the fire
Don't put out the fire
Don't put out the fire

Well I gotta, gotta, gotta say
See I loved you till you walked away
When you catch me with a brand new flame
Don't be surprised, baby

She said, I left my heart in your hands
Don't you understand?
Don't put out the fire
Don't put out the fire
Don't put out the fire

Baby don't burn me out
Don't put out the fire
Baby, don't you burn me our (fire)
I don't wanna see you walk away (fire)
Baby, don't burn me out
I said, don't put out the fire
Don't put out the fire
Don't put out the fire
Baby, don't you burn me out
Don't put out the fire
