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 life fire, but I'm tired of getting burned
It's been a long time coming baby,
But the tables just got turned
Cos 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 & chain has melted away
And I feel 10 feet tall today
Cos I've stolen back my mind, oh baby
I should've realised it years before
But 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
Cos 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 to the sunshine
And I ain't going back"¦
Loving you is life fire, but I'm tired of getting burned
It's been a long time coming baby,
But the tables just got turned
Cos you swallowed up my soul
And you wasted all my youth
The time has come to face it, it's the moment of truth...
