There were storms in her eyes and blood on the tracks

She left some fool never lookin back

Her walk was steady headin my direction

I never knew a knife to the heart was a sign of affection

Her dark hair was flowin like a smokey fire

She stared right through me that look of desire

She's gettin close now and Iʼve lost control

It's burns me up but Iʼm still not letting go

You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire

You canʼt buy love, or shake desire

You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire

You canʼt buy love, or shake desire

Good lord I need some cool, cool water

For the heat comin out of the devils daughter

I took a bite of the apple and I lost my mind

My eyes can see but my heart is always blind

You can't put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire

You canʼt buy love, or shake desire

You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire

You canʼt buy love, or shake desire

Well I get cut so deep canʼt understand

Why it canʼt happen to another man

A lesson learned is a lesson lost Iʼm broke again

I can't pay the cost of love

You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire

You canʼt buy love, or shake desire

You canʼt put out the fire, you canʼt put out the fire

You canʼt buy love, or shake desire
