Why do lovers part? Face the time alone?
Can we mend a heart? Carve it out of stone?
Take chance on love, to let it go?
It's an unknown chart to heaven knows

Ooh the fire and the rain
Looking for someone in this game
Twisted, dystopian, it's insane
Throned in this pain (oh, no)
Ooh the senseless cabaret
Hero to zero in this play
Mysteries of love, bought in, then wains
Sold in distain (oh, no)
Ooh the fire and the rain

Love's a poison dart from a fickle bow
Tears your soul apart, splinters brittle bone
Don't you dare break down, or let it show
As the blood spills out just let it flow

Ooh the fire and the rain
Looking for someone in this game
Twisted, dystopian, it's insane
Throned in this pain (oh, no)
Ooh the senseless cabaret
Hero to zero in this play
Mysteries of love, bought in, then wains
Sold in distain (oh, no)
Ooh the fire and the rain
