Paper In Fire
de John Mellencamp
She had a dream
And boy it was a good one
So she chased after her dream
With much desire
But when she get too close
To her expectations
Well the dream burned up
Like paper in fire
CHORUS:
Paper in fire
Stinkin?up the ashtrays
Paper in fire
Smokin?up the alleyways
Who's to say the way
A man should spend his days
Do you let them smolder
Like paper in fire
He wanted love
With no involvement
So he chased the wind
That's all his silly life required
And the days of vanity
Went on forever
And he saw his days burn up
Like paper in fire
CHORUS:
Paper in fire
stinkin?up the ashtrays
Paper in fire
Smokin?up the alleyways
Who's to say the way
A man should spend his days
Do you let them smolder
Like paper in fire
There's a good life
right across the green fields
And each generation
Stares at it from afar
But we keep no check
On our appetites
So the green fields turn to brown
Like paper in fire
CHORUS:
Paper in fire
Stinkin?up the ashtrays
Paper in fire
Smokin?up the alleyways
Who's to say the way
A man should spend his days
Do you let them smolder
Like paper in fire
