Started with sparks Jumping like stars on an empty sky Then came the smoke Filling my lungs And it stung my eyes Don't mistake me for a fool I knew to stay away from you So no sir I know better than to play with fire I've been here before and I was just burned You should never mess around with water It will put you out It will put you out Wasn't I right? We were ashes before we could ignite I would have liked Oh, if this had never happened tonight Don't mistake me for a fool I knew to stay away from you So no sir, cause I know better than to play with fire I've been here before and I was just burned You should never mess around with water It will put you out It will put you out It will put you out It will put you out I'd be burned by this match If I were to let this catch So no sir cause I know better than to play with fire I've been here before and I was just burned You should never mess around with water Oh no sir cause I know better than to play with fire I've been here before and I was just burned You should never mess around with water It will put you out It will put you out It will put you out It will put you out
