The Flame Of Love Lyrics
Nobody told me
Every moment without you would seem so long
I get so lonely
And the nights have been so cold since you’ve been gone
Did I go
And make believe the way you touched me
Was it real
Or just a game my mind was playing
Tell me
Was it the flame of love
Or was it just my imagination
Was it the flame of love
Or an act of desperation
It’s amazing
How a love could feel so good then fade away
And replacing
You with someone else is a game my heart won’t play
Cause I know
I’ll never feel the heat that’s in your soul
But I can’t
Remember how I lost complete control
Tell me
Chorus
How could I know you’d ever go
Taking my dreams away with you
You lead me along. You did me wrong
I can’t go on now, baby
Every moment without you would seem so long
I get so lonely
And the nights have been so cold since you’ve been gone
Did I go
And make believe the way you touched me
Was it real
Or just a game my mind was playing
Tell me
Or was it just my imagination
Was it the flame of love
Or an act of desperation
How a love could feel so good then fade away
And replacing
You with someone else is a game my heart won’t play
Cause I know
I’ll never feel the heat that’s in your soul
But I can’t
Remember how I lost complete control
Tell me
Taking my dreams away with you
You lead me along. You did me wrong
I can’t go on now, baby

Richard Marx himself always hated this song from what I heard. You know all the keyboard parts you hear? That's why. All those keyboard parts and textures were originally written to be played on guitar. His producer or somebody made him change the guitar parts to keyboard parts, and i believe that is Marx's reason behind hating the song.
Anyway, I think the song itself is about a breakup (that much is obvious) but a breakup from a relationship where he was unsure if he really loved whoever he was with. Or maybe he was so happy, that her touch seemed surreal to him. Im not too sure. Any Richard Marx fans out there please comment some on this page and help me gather some opinions on the songs meaning. I'm spent for now.
