Third Degree Burn - Smokey River Boys Lyrics
Third Degree Burn
Before I knew what hit me…
She was gone..
I fell fast…and I fell hard…
And……when she left…she left …
A permanent mark upon my heart..
[CHO:] WHEN THE PASSION’S COLD…BUT THE MEMORY’S NOT…
IT JUST REMINDS YOU…WHAT YOU AIN’T GOT…
I PLAYED WITH FIRE…UNTIL I LEARNED…
TO A THIRD DEGREE BURN….…
Music Channel 4 bars
[2] I thought I was wise…in the ways of love..
Yeah but she showed me some things….
I never dreamed of……
How could I…have been so wrong…
Now I got the scars to prove…
That I held on a little too long…
[CHO:] WHEN THE PASSION’S COLD…BUT THE MEMORY’S NOT…
IT JUST REMINDS YOU…OF WHAT YOU AIN’T GOT…
I PLAYED WITH FIRE…UNTIL I LEARNED…
THAT THE FLAME OF LOVE CAN TURN…
TO A THIRD DEGREE BURN….…
Breakdown Chorus:
[CHO:] WHEN THE PASSION’S COLD…BUT THE MEMORY’S NOT…
IT JUST REMINDS YOU…OF WHAT YOU AIN’T GOT…
I PLAYED WITH FIRE…UNTIL I LEARNED…
THAT THE FLAME OF LOVE CAN TURN…
TO A THIRD DEGREE BURN….…
[CHO:] WHEN THE PASSION’S COLD…BUT THE MEMORY’S NOT…
IT JUST REMINDS YOU…OF WHAT YOU AIN’T GOT…
I PLAYED WITH FIRE…UNTIL I LEARNED…
THAT THE FLAME OF LOVE CAN TURN…[sustain]
TO A THIRD DEGREE BURN….…
[TAG:] music to the out
