Album: Richard Marx (1987)

The Flame Of Love

Nobody told me
Every moment without you would seem so long
I get so lonely
And the nights have been so cold since you've been gone
Did I go and make believe the way you touched me
Was it real or just a game my mind was playing, tell me

[Chorus:]
Was it the flame of love
Or was it just my imagination
Was it the flame of love
Or an act of desperation

It's amazing
How a love could feel so good then fade away
And replacing you with someone else is a game my heart won't play
Cause I know I'll never feel the heat that's in your soul
But I can't remember how I lost complete control
Tell me

[Chorus]

How could I know you'd ever go
Taking my dreams away with you
You lead me along
You did me wrong
I can't go on now, baby
