Walking Through Fire

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 one's 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 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

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
