FROM THE THOUGHTS 
THAT I'VE BEEN THINKIN' 
I SHOULD THINK 

OF AN ALIBI 
THOUGH I'M 
INNOCENT 
I STILL GOT 

A GUILTY MIND 
THERE'S NO PLACE 
THAT I CAN TURN TO 
WHEN SHE TURNS OUT 

THE LIGHTS 
TO KEEP HER 
FROM SEEING YOU 
BURNING IN MY EYES 

IT'S LIKE TRYIN' TO HIDE 
A FIRE IN THE DARK 
CARRYING 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 
NOTHING CAN 
HELP ME NOW 
NO NO NO NO NO 

8 BAR 
INSTRUMENTAL 
BREAK 


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 IN THE DARK 
CARRYING 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 

NOTHING CAN 
HELP ME NOW 
NOW 
NO 

IT'S LIKE TRYIN' TO HIDE 
A FIRE IN THE DARK 
CARRYING 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 
NOTHING CAN 
HELP ME NOW 
IT'S LIKE TRYIN' TO HIDE 

A FIRE IN THE DARK 
CARRYING AROUND 
THIS TORCH IN MY HEART
I CANNOT CONCEAL IT 

I CANNOT PUT IT OUT
