Lord I'm wearing out my shoes
         I been saving up my lovin' Saving It for you
         Well It's like trying to build a fire In the rain

       Chorus
         It's like trying to build a fire
         When the rain Is pouring down
         Like swimming In muddy water
         Treading slow until you drown
         It's like trying to stop a clock lord
         like trying to stop a train
         It's like trying to build a fire In the rain

         Well I keep asking 'bout your love, dear
         But you won't ever say
         I've been looking for direction
         But you won't show the way
         Well It's like trying to build a fire In the rain

       Chorus

         Well It's like trying to build a fire In the rain

       Chorus
