Don't fan the flame, don't fan the flame Don't fan the flame of love I must admit you've got a way about you But something here keeps warning me to doubt you So don't fan the flame, don't fan the flame Don't fan the flame of love You've got a kiss that makes me thrill all over But I've a hunch you're nothing but a rover So don't fan the flame, don't fan the flame Don't fan the flame of love It seems I never play upon the side that's winning 'Cause Lady Luck never was my friend Each time I think it's gonna be the sweet beginning It turns out to be the bitter end I should forget how much I seem to need you Because I know where love like this can lead you So don't fan the flame, don't fan the flame Don't fan the flame of love There's not another one who can hold a candle You're dynamite, anyone can see But dynamite at times gets mighty hard to handle And that's not the kind of game for me I should forget how much I seem to need you Because I know where love like this can lead you So don't fan the flame, don't fan the flame Don't fan the flame of love Don't fan the flame, don't fan the flame Don't fan the flame, don't fan the flame Don't fan the flame of love So don't fan the flame, don't fan the flame Don't fan the flame of love
