Trial By Fire

Baby..too bad...i used to love you girl
I..don't care..no more about your face
No you..make me mad...the way you cat around
With your lips, your legs
And all your sexy ways
Do you got another lover now
Do you think it's me you're foolin' now
No..no

(chorus)

Oh....i can see it in your eyes
Ever since you walked away
Said your last goodbye
Oh...i can see it in your eyes
All the damage has been done
No more alibis

Oh you...never hear
A single word i say
No you..turn away
Where do you disappear
Oh i've had enough
You need to get a life
It's all..so tired
I think i'm out of here

Do you got another lover now
Do you think it's me you're foolin' now
No.

And when you're alone remember why
You had never learned how to cry.
No...no

(chorus)

Oh...i can see it in your eyes
Ever since you walked away
Said your last goodbye
Oh...i can see it in your eyes
All the damage has been done
No more alibis

(vintage neal solo)

Say you got another lover now
Tell me who you think you're foolin' now

(chorus)

Oh...i can see it in your eyes
Ever since you walked away
Said your last goodbye
Oh...i can see it in your eyes
All the damage has been done
No more alibis

Oh......
Oh......

(neal solo reprise to exit)

I don't know why, there's an open flame
Burnin' in the game, it's me you blame
I can't deny, it was a crime
If you would let me try, maybe you'd change your mind

Don't be down on me baby
Down on me girl
I get lost sometimes
In my crazy world

Those little things, you say i do
Well they might be true
Tell me what good does it do...
When things go wrong, i'm the first you blame
I try another way, still someone's gotta pay

Don't be down on me baby
Down on me girl
I get lost sometimes
In my crazy world

Don't be down on me baby
'cause i love you
'cause i need you

I, walk alone in the dark, with you
And deep, in the shadows i run, without you
And here, here i stand, the king of fools
Now love's here, where are you
Baby can you hear me
Can you hear me callin'
Baby can you hear my
Message of love
Baby can you hear me
Can you hear me callin',
Baby can you hear my
Message of love
Why, have i waited so long to be there...for you
Now, now i'm ready to give everything...to you
Now love's here, where are you
Baby can you hear me callin',
Baby you hear my
Message of love
Baby can you hear me
Can you hear me callin',
Baby can you hear my
Message of love
I hear...but i never listen
I see...and still i'm blind
All alone...lost in the silence, i'm dyin'
Baby can you hear me
Can you hear me callin',
Baby can you hear my
Message of love
Baby can you hear me
Can you hear me callin',
Baby can you hear my
Message of love
Message...do you, do you. do you hear me
Do you hear my message
Baby can you hear me callin', callin'
Do you, do you hear me

When she walked into the room
I felt her move me
I saw her eyes
They went right through me
Just one look i was forever in blue

In a spell of her embrace
Just for a moment
I was the one, caught in the moment
I knew, yes, right then i knew

Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, she's like no other
I'm lost, lost in the dream of you
'cause it's true oh
I'm forever, forever in blue

In a fantasy of my anticipation
I knew there was no consolation
I knew, oh i knew

And on the night she told me that
She had another
I was broken by the truth
I discovered, i knew oh i knew

Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, she's like no other
I'm lost, lost in the dream of you
'cause it's true oh
I'm forever, forever in blue... in blue

Believe me girl, i tried not to call
But here i am once again, yes once again
Beside you, with my hands on the wall

Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, she's like no other
I'm lost, lost in the dream of you
Those two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, she's like no other
I'm lost, lost in the dream of you
'cause it's true oh
I'm forever, forever in blue

Tears that she kept from me
Somewhere there's broken dreams
Where love once used to be

All in a memory
With time we are forgiven
In time we will forget

I hear her voice in the night
Cries of joy
We were good... good...good...
I still recall how we'd touch, how we'd fall
We were good... good... good...

Tears that she kept from me
Someone she used to be
Forever yours then suddenly
One kiss she can't remember

I wish i could forget
I hear her voice in the night, cries of joy
We were good... good... good...
I still recall how we'd touch, how we'd fall
We were good... good...good...

Still she cries
Somewhere... still she cries
No one knows when lovers will walk away

I hear her voice, in the night
Cries of joy...
We were good... good... good...

All in a memory
Where our love once used to be
Good... good...

Jimmy wanted her the moment that she stumbled his way
With a cocktail in her hand, she knew how she'd win the game
There were beautiful in all the right places
She keeps her rendezvous with soup opera faces
She started rumors that were driving him crazy
He couldn't stop the things they'd say

And they live for, passion, love and pain
In a rage of jealousy and fame
And they watch their dreams go up on flames

Castles burning... in the dead of night
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Wo... burnin'...

In the kingdom of pretenders love is not what it seems
Jimmy cried and then he punished her
No one heard her scream
On the outside, it's all crimson and clover
On the inside, they know it's over

And the band of lawyers that steal the show
As they watch their world go up in smoke

Castles burning... in the dead of night
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Wo... burnin'... burnin'... burnin'... burnin'...

(spoken words)
When we return a story of a 5 alarm fire
Late last night in the prestigious hollywood hills
Where one of the most controversial marriages in the
Entertainment industry went up in smoke, arson is suspected
It is still under investigation...

You know i love you, you know you're my girl,
I'd never hurt you... no

Castles burning... in the dead of night
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Burnin'... burnin'

All is fair in love and war, but war is hell...
In the heart of the night, in the middle of the big bad city

Once in your life you love
Once in your life you try
The one you're holdin'
Is the one that tears you... apart

Deep in her arms you lie
Deep in the night her eyes
Tell your secrets
To the one you try to deny

Touch me, touch me crazy
How your kiss betrays me
It's not the love, it's just the rain
Two broken hearts
But not in vain...
It's not the love, it's just the rain

Inside you keep on lyin'
Inside your soul is dyin'
You still can't hold back
Still you can't say good-bye
Touch me, touch me crazy
How your kiss betrays me
It's not the love, it's just the rain

Two broken hearts
But not in vain...
No reasons why, no one's to blame
It's not the love, it's just the rain
It's just the rain, it's just the rain,
It's just the rain, it's just the rain
Falling, falling, falling
It's just the rain

Treasures in the jars of clay
Let the light shine out of darkness
Fallen down but not destroyed
It's just another trial by fire

In my song i'll send a prayer
Do you know me, do you hear me
Where the will to face this shame
It's just another trial by fire

Hello mr. moon
Can i have some time with you
Trouble keep me runnin'...
You can see it comin'...
I know who shines down on you

Hello mr. moon
I've come back to talk to you
All my life i'm runnin'...
From the love that's comin'...
Saving grace please pull me through

In my doubt i can't believe
Like a wave tossed where the wind blows
Tears of faith temper my soul
Just another trial by fire
Just another trial by fire
