Flame - Paul Simon

Flame!

that was her name

Being with Flame set me on fire

Her lips, sweeter than wine, clinging to mine

Taught me desire

She promised she’d always be right here in my arms

But I didn’t know that this love of ours was sending out fire alarms

How I love you?

Flame!

left as she came

All of my tears can’t put out the Flame

She promised she’d always be right here in my arms

But I didn’t know that this love of ours was sending out fire alarms

How I love you?

Flame!

left as she came

All of my tears can’t put out the Flame
