Tryin` to Hide a Fire in the Dark — текст песни (billy dean)

(Billy Dean, Tim Nichols)

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 nothin` can help me now

At first it was no problem
Flickering thoughts of you now and then
Nothin` 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 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 nothin` can help me now

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 nothin` can help me now

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 nothin` can help me now
