I used to wake up, watch you while you were sleeping You'd open up your eyes like you knew what I was thinking You thought my arms were strong, right where you belonged How could so right, baby, end up so wrong? Cause it's hard to keep the fire burning It's hard to keep the flame alive It's hard to heal the hurting Just can't keep the fire burning Do you remember the weekend by the ocean? We were invisible in midnight locomotion The tide is rolling in, it's time to sink or swim Do you think we could ever strike another match again Cause it's hard to keep the fire burning It's hard to keep the flame alive It's hard to heal the hurting Just can't keep that fire burning Oh, and it's hard to heal the hurt Just can't keep the fire burning It's hard to keep the fire burning It's hard to keep the flame alive Oh, and it's hard to heal the hurting When you can't keep the fire burning Oh, it's hard to heal the hurting Just can't keep the fire burning And it's hard to heal the hurting When you just can't keep the fire burning
