Standing Outside The Fire - Garth Brooks

*We call them cool*

*Those hearts that have no scars to show*

*The ones that never do let go*

*And risk the tables being turned*

*

*We call them fools*

*Who have to dance within the flame*

*Who chance the sorrow and the shame*

*That always comes with getting burned*

*

*But you've got to be tough when consumed by desire*

*'Cause it's not enough just to stand outside the fire*

*

*We call them strong*

*Those who can face this world alone*

*Who seem to get by on their own*

*Those who will never take the fall*

*

*We call them weak*

*Who are unable to resist*

*The slightest chance love might exist*

*And for that forsake it all*

*

*They're so hell-bent on giving ,walking a wire*

*Convinced it's not living if you stand outside the fire*

*

*Standing outside the fire*

*Standing outside the fire*

*Life is not tried, it is merely survived*

*If you're standing outside the fire*

*

*There's this love that is burning*

*Deep in my soul*

*Constantly yearning to get out of control*

*Wanting to fly higher and higher*

*I can't abide*

*Standing outside the fire*

*

*Standing outside the fire*

*Standing outside the fire*

*Life is not tried, it is merely survived*

*If you're standing outside the fire*

*

*Standing outside the fire*

*Standing outside the fire*

*Life is not tried, it is merely survived*

*If you're standing outside the fire*
