Lyrics

I struck a match, started a fire
Burned it all down, down to the barbed wire
And it took a trail of trouble smoldering in my wake
To get me on my knees admitting
I've made mistakes

BUT NEVER YOU, NEVER YOU
I REGRET SO MANY THINGS, I DO
LOVE IS HARD TO HOLD ON TO
BUT NEVER, EVER YOU

Love is a flood, fantastic and cruel
The kick in my blood, the black in my blue
A fever high until I drop like mercury
Stone cold afraid of how love can turn on me

BUT NEVER YOU, NEVER YOU
BEAT THE ODDS, HONEY, IS WHAT WE'LL DO
LOVE IS HARD TO HOLD ON TO
BUT NEVER, EVER YOU
