Mary Chapin Carpenter : Come On Come On :
"Walking Through Fire"
Fueling it with bitterness and doubt
That's a blaze that once it starts
No amount of tears can put out
I know you're scared, but no one's spared
When you play with matches,
You've got me walking through fire
You've got me walking through fire
Baby, you've been burned by lovers
Baby, you've been scarred by the pain
But, baby, I'm not like the others
Drawing moths to a flame
Spite is like a spark, cracking in the dark
Consuming all it catches
And you've got me walking through fire
You got me walking through fire to get to you
You got me walking through fire, you got me walking through fire
You can see the toll it's taking
You can feel the faith it's shaking
You can hear the heart it's breaking now
Baby, I've been burned by the fever
I've been scorched by desire
But baby, I am not your deceiver
Or your eloquent liar
Your jealous heart is tearing us apart
And turning love to ashes
When you got me walking through fire
You got me walking through fire
You got me walking through fire
You got me walking through fire
You got me walking through fire
You got me walking through fire
As the flames shoot higher
You've got me walking through fire
Walking
