Wish I would've listened to myself You would've thought I'd known better Shouldn't trust my heart this time But the mind, it changes like the weather The scars will fade away, and I may never be the same But you can't start a fire in the pouring rain Never say never
Now I hear you're back to your old self And I still can't imagine Why you take something good, like love, like us And pretend it never happened Cause you'll look back one day And you'll wish we still had that flame But you can't start a fire in the pouring rain Never say never
You said you would never let me go You promised me, our love written on the wall Felt so easy but I should've known better To never say never
Gotta be careful what you give You never know just what you get Who knows, maybe the best hasn't happened yet Some days I still feel the same And my love, it still remains Wish I could start a fire in the pouring rain
You said you would never let me go You promised me, our love written on the wall Felt so easy but I should've known better To never say never
Told the whole world that you were all mine You put it in my head that we were doing fine Am I the only one who remembers? It doesn't matter now if you change your mind Cause I won't be around when you finally realize Nothing really lasts forever
Flames in the sky And there's smoke in my eyes You set me free So don't say you miss me Just don't say you miss me
You said you would never let me go You promised me, our love written on the wall Felt so easy but I should've known better To never say never
We should start a fire in the pouring rain
(spoken) I may never understand why you left I guess I just have to accept this is the way it was meant to be Kind of like how I never understood how the ocean just stops at the shore And why it doesn't wash away the land If only someone could hold my heart and my hand And make it feel like you did, and not give up so easy There's no need to be angry, it's okay to be sad I just have to trust there's something better for me out there swirling around in the universe Someone who will believe in themselves as much as I do And never take a wish for granted and always count the stars Looking back, you're always closer than you thought There's no point now in starting something new The heart wants what the heart wants And none of it matters in the end if you can't love someone back Love and truth are whispering, "you can't start a fire in the pouring rain"
