Walking Through Fire (Album Version)

Walking Through Fire (Album Version) - Mary Chapin Carpenter

When you set a match to your heart

Fueling it with bitterness and doubt

That's the place that once it starts

No amount of tears can put out

I know you're scared

But no ones spared when you

Play with matches

You got me walking through fire

You got me walking through fire

Maybe you've been burned by lovers

Maybe 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 crackling in the dark

Consuming all it catches

And you got me walking through fire

You got me walking through

Fire to get to you

Got me walking through fire

(walking through fire)

You got me walking through fire

(walking through fire)

You can see the toll its taking

You can feel the faith its shaking

You can hear the heart its 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

Turning love to ashes

When you got me walking through fire

You've got me walking through

Fire to get to you

Got me walking through fire

You've got me walking through fire

You've got me walking through fire

(walking through fire)

You've got me walking through fire

(walking through fire)

As the flames shoot higher

You got me walking through fire

(through fire) walking
