Here's another good one.

Standing Outside the Fire
lyrics by Jenny Yates and Garth Brooks
from Garth's "In Pieces" CD. Also on "The Hits".

We call them cool,
Those hearts that have no scars to show,
the ones that never do let go,
and risk the tables being turned.

We call them fools,
who have to dance within the flame,
who chance the sorrow and the shame,
that always comes with getting burned.

But you've got to be tough
when consumed by desire,
'cause it's not enough
just to stand outside the fire!

We call them strong
those who can face this world alone,
who seem to get by on their own,
those who will never take the fall.

We call them weak,
who are unable to resist,
the slightest chance love might exist,
and for that forsake it all.

They're so hell-bent on giving,
walking a wire,
convinced it's not living
if you stand outside the fire.

Standing outside the fire, standing outside the fire,
Life is not tried, it is merely survived
if you're standing outside the fire!

There's this love that is burning, deep in my soul,
constantly yearning to get out of control.
Wanting to glide, higher and higher,
I can't abide, standing outside the fire.

Standing outside the fire, standing outside the fire,
Life is not tried, it is merely survived if you're
standing outside the fire!

This is an awesome message, IMO.

Stay in the Black! jimS
