I spent a long time thinking about what you meant to me
And I've decided I was wrong
I fooled myself thinking it was how it's supposed to be
I should've known it all along
Now I don't want to fight about it no more
It was all so clear to me when I walked out the door
Loving you is like fire but I'm tired of getting burned
It's been a long time coming baby
But the tables just got turned
Cause you swallowed up my soul
And you wasted all my youth
The time has come to face it it's the moment of truth
I'm amazed I let you do the things you did to me
But they say that love is blind
Now my ball and chain has melted away
And I feel ten feet tall today
Cause I've stolen back my mind oh baby
I should've realized it years before
Now my satisfaction's guaranteed
Without you that's for sure
Loving you is like fire but I'm tired of getting burned
It's been a long time coming baby
But the tables just got turned
Cause you swallowed up my soul
And you wasted all my youth
The time has come to face it it's the moment of truth
I've waited a lifetime
But I'm finally on the track
Out of the dark into the sunshine
And I ain't going back
Uh uh uh uh uh uh
Loving you is like fire but I'm tired of getting burned
It's been a long time coming baby
But the tables just got turned
Cause you swallowed up my soul
And you wasted all my youth
The time has come to face it it's the moment of truth
It's the moment of truth
The time has come to face
You not go baby
Oh I don't want now
I need you baby
