The flame rises but it soon descends

Empty pages and a frozen pen

What can you do when your dreams come true 
        Am7                    G
And it's not quite like you planned? 
Em    Bm7
 What have you done to be losing the one

You held it so tight in your hand, well

Time passes and you must move on,

Half the distance takes you twice as long

So you keep on singing for the sake of the song

After the thrill is gone

You're afraid you might fall out of fashion

And you're feeling cold and small

Any kind of love without passion

That ain't no kind of lovin' at all, well
