Feed the Flame Lyrics by Percy Sledge

Take Time to Know Her

0

[Verse 1]
Darling, we have built a fire
Out of need and strong desire
We must keep it burning
Or only ashes will remain, oh yes it will

[Verse 2]
Remember kisses feed the fire
And makes the flame of love grow high
So, you can bet I won't forget
To feed the flame

[Chorus]
Feed the flame, keep it burnin'
Give it love and watch it grow
With tenderness and lovin' care
There's no way for love to grow cold

[Verse 3]
So, let's keep the love light burnin' bright
Even when days seem dark as night
If it once flickers
It may not ever be the same, oh no it won't

[Verse 4]
Remember faith feeds the fire
And trust make the flame go high
So, don't forget, please don't forget
To feed the flame

[Chorus]
Feed the flame, keep it burnin'
Give it love and watch it grow
With tenderness and lovin' care
There's no way for love to grow cold

[Outro]
Feed the flame, keep it burnin'
