I stare down at my heart Laying there blistered and burned Simply a fool I walked into the fire Trying to see what it guarded so well No regrets, it was worth the chance Though I got hurt in the end To experience the wonder of you If only for a second in time I continue to watch you in awe As you stay imprisoned by the flames Watching them fade only to grow again Sadness washes over my soul Seeing you shiver uncontrollably As tears stream down your face You fear you will lose your feelings If you step out before the flames die Look in a mirror, stare into your eyes Finally realize only you keep the flames alive |
