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
