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 nothing can help me now oh no

At first it was no problem flickering thoughts of you now and then
Nothing 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...
It´s like tryin´ to hide a fire...
