This Fire Just Won't Burn (contemporary country)

Well I struggled all I could have
Workin' hard for you to notice me
Said some things I never should have
Tried to be a man I could never be
But you hardly glanced up from your book, baby
And when I tried to meet your eyes, you wouldn't look, you wouldn't look
I lit a candle, turned out the light
I've been tryin' to get it goin' all night
I stayed up late, gave up sleep
Would've thought by now I'd learn
This fire just won't burn
Tried to strike a conversation
You never heard a word I said
Tried to warm you with temptation
But got a cold shoulder instead
You hardly glanced up from your magazine
And when I tried to meet your eyes, you wouldn't see
I lit a candle, turned out the light
I've been tryin' to get it goin' all night
I stayed up late, gave up sleep
Would've thought by now I'd learn
This fire just won't
I 'll keep tryin' as long as it takes
Cuz you mean too much to me to stop it now
No, I won't give up
Lit a candle, turned out the light
I've been tryin' to get it goin' all night
Stayed up late and gave up sleep
Would've thought by now I'd learn
This fire just won't burn
This fire just won't burn
This fire won't
