I burn with desire each time my heart fans the fire

To that old flame that burns inside of me

She cried when I left her, now I try to forget her

Oh how foolish I was to ever wanna leave



Chorus:

Because nobody in his right mind would've left her

I had to be crazy to say good bye

Nobody in his right mind could've left her

Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind



I still carry her picture

I wish her well with the new love I know she's found by now

Each night finds me dreamin', each day I spend thinkin'

How much I wish she was still around



Chorus



Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind
