Lyrics:
The danger in dreaming of white picket fences
Is losing a sense of which side you’ll be on
Well, call me a fool, a hopeless romantic
Still longing for something long gone
Don’t go believin’, I feel what you’re feelin’
’cause I’ll never be what you want
I can’t start this fire, I’ve got no spark
I can’t start this fire
I can’t start this fire, it’s cold in my heart
Not ’til you held me, did I come to know
That I’ll never show you the love you deserve
The closest of friends is as close as we’ll get
So don’t play with dangerous words
Please, don’t say “I love you”, I won’t say it back to you
I may never say it again
I can’t start this fire, I’ve got not spark
I can’t start this fire
I can’t start this fire, it’s cold in my heart
Don’t wait around for me to change my mind, it’s only killing time
A working cure for love is hard to find
And so, it’s only fair for you to know, I won’t be there with you
I’ll still be three steps behind
I can’t start this fire, I’ve got no spark
I can’t start this fire
I can’t start this fire, it’s cold in my heart
I can’t start this fire
I can’t start this fire, you won’t have my heart
