One night in a motel room
Eyes cast like steel
I drank the wine that they left on my table
I knew the morning was too far
I smoked my last cigarette
Stay only to defy
The night was dark and the land is cold
I was frozen right to the bone
Just like fire would, I burn
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burned up
Five hundred miles I've gone today
And tomorrow's five hundred more
Outside my window the world passes by
It's stranger than a dream
Just like fire would, I burn
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burned up
I go to work and I earn my pay load
My sweat falls to the ground
I see you now but we may never meet again, child
The ice is hanging on the door
One night in a motel room
Eyes cast like steel
I drank the wine that they left on my table
I knew the morning was too far
Just like fire would, I burn
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burned up
Just like fire would, I burn
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burned up
