from the thoughts that i ve been thinkin i should think of an alibi thought i m innocent i ve still got a guilty mind there s no place that i can turn to when she turns out the lights to keep her from seein you burnin in my eyes it s like tryin to hide a fire in the dark carrin around this torch in my heart i cannot conceal it i cannot put it out it s like tryin to hide a fire in the dark tryin to fight a flame i never meant to start it s out of control and nothing can help me now oh no at first it was no problem flickering thoughts of you now and then nothing intimate that she could call a sin then you sparked my imagination temptation bout to drive me wild these flares of desire you can see for miles it s like tryin to hide a fire it s like tryin to hide a fire
