Well I`ve been running right behind you
Lord I`m wearing out my shoes
I been saving up my lovin` Saving it for you
Well it`s like trying to build a fire in the rain
Chorus
It`s like trying to build a fire
When the rain Is pouring down
Like swimming in muddy water
Treading slow until you drown
It`s like trying to stop a clock lord
like trying to stop a train
It`s like trying to build a fire in the rain
Well I keep asking `bout your love, dear
But you won`t ever say
I`ve been looking for direction
But you won`t show the way
Well it`s like trying to build a fire in the rain
Chorus
Well it`s like trying to build a fire in the rain
Chorus
