The Fire Inside

THE FIRE INSIDE A fire that burns in the heart of man It's a strong emotion known as pride Try as hard is he possibly can It's so difficult to hide Until the woman of his dreams Suddenly comes along He becomes like peaches and cream Although he wants to seem strong The fire inside burns brightly But it's no longer from pride And it's not to be taken lightly His emotions are churning inside Since he had swallowed all his pride He asked her for a date Hoping he would not be denied 'Cause that would seal his fate She said yes, I'd love to go And spend some time with you We can start things off real slow And see where they lead us to And now the rest is history The fire inside is still bright They're married and have a family It all turned out just right
