Song Lyrics

You know they say that one hand washes the other
Well you better start, better start looking out for me
'Cause there's a way that you can be minus one lover
Just keep making it hard deliberately

If you're gonna play with fire don't cry when you burn your fingers
I'm not going to be the fool that you get tired of
Someone's got to clean up their act before the show is over
Baby such are the facts of love

It's been so long since we made magic together
But you never stopped taking real good care of yourself
There comes a time you see your face in the mirror
And something tells you the pain ain't good for your health no no

If you're gonna play with fire don't cry when you burn your fingers
I'm not going to be the fool that you get tired of
Someone's got to clean up their act before the show is over
Baby such are the facts of love, ooh

If you gonna play with fire don't cry when you burn your fingers
I'm not going to be the fool that you get tired of
Somebody's got to clean up their act before the show is over
Baby such are the facts, the facts of love, the facts of love, the facts of love
