Chorus: (4x) mama said that nothing burns like fire

When I was just a boy
I lost my favorite toy

Mama said now listen son
Life is full of fun

Don't lose yourself in the past
Cause years go by too fast

I only had one thing in mind
That's not to waste my time

Chorus: (2x) mama said that nothing burns like fire
Like fire
Like fire

Fell in love for the first time
Gave away my heart

Mama said now listen son
Life is full of fun

Don't hide yourself in a shell
Use your lifetime well

I kept one thing in mind
I'd never waste my time

Chorus: (4x) mama said that nothing burns like fire

("solo")

When you were just a boy
You lost your favorite toy

I'm tellin' you to listen son
Life is full of fun

Don't lose yourself in the past
Cause years go by too fast

So listen to me, keep in mind
Learn to use your time

Chorus: (4x) mama said that nothing burns like fire
