Song Lyrics

Never Knew the Fire

by Jennifer Pitcock

Verse One:
Cherished all your life and then some--
That's what you said I'd be.
But now your life is full of trouble--
There's no more room for me.
If you had known love's many splendors,
You'd have never said goodbye,
But you're the fool in this love story,
You let perfection pass you by.

Chorus:
You never knew the fire,
You never saw the light in my eyes.
If you had ever seen it you'd still be by my side,
Oh, you never knew the fire.

Bridge:
Oh, you never knew the passion,
But you took it when you could,
You never knew the heartbeat,
But you broke it like I knew you would.
You never saw the treasure
That was right in front of your eyes,
You never knew the lifetime--
Just remember it was you who said goodbye...
Oh, you said goodbye.

(Break)

Chorus:
You never knew the fire,
You never saw the light in my eyes.
If you had ever seen it you'd still be by my side,
Oh, you never knew the fire,
You never thought before you said goodbye.
You didn't see it--how could you be so blind?
Oh, you never knew the fire.
You never knew the fire,
Now, I hope you're satisfied.
Are you happy you told me goodbye?
Now you'll never know the fire.
You'll never know the fire.
You'll never know my fire!
