Lyrics

When I woke up this morning, I was lyin' in my bed
Starin' at the ceiling, I heard the words she said
"I'm leavin', I'm a-leavin' I don't love you anymore"
The last time that I saw her, she was walkin' out my door

CHORUS:
Too Close to the fire, too far from the flame
That old familiar feeling just doesn't feel the same
Is it me or is it her, I wonder who is to blame
Too close to the fire, too far from the flame

The echo of her footsteps are ringing in my ears
Misty morning sunshine reflected through my tears
I'm cryin', cryin' lonesome Lord I've never been so blue
No she's gone and left me there's no tellin' what I'll do

REPEAT CHORUS

I can still feel the way she used to hold me
I can still hear the way she'd call my name
I just can't figure out wht she has left me
Too close to the fire, too far from the flame

REPEAT CHORUS
