He's Playing With Fire

He holds out his hand
smiling kindly
she knows he's only playing
but she reaches out blindly

she will ignor 
all his mistakes
she will hold on
even as her heart breaks

he toys with her
but soon he will leave
to find another girl
who he can desieve

a girls emotions
are full of desire
someone should warn him
he's playing with fire

one day he will meet
a much tougher girl
and he'll fall in love
she'll light up his world

yet she will know 
what he has done
then she will leave him
and two becomes one

his actions will burn him
deep in his heart
when his past come to bite him
and the fire restarts.
