(Dolly Parton/Bill Owens)

You lied to me

I can't believe

That I've been such a fool

I thought this time

I might find

Someone who would play by the rules

My mind said no

But my heart said go

And again I've made the wrong turn

Now here I stand

My heart in your hands...

And I've gone from burning to burned

Ah, you'd think by now

I'd know how

To keep this heart of mine safe

It goes to show

You just never know

Who can you trust these days

How could I make

The same mistake

But as far as I'm concerned

Got myself to blame

Got to close to the flame

Now I've gone from burning to burned

Everyone knows

The old saying goes

That a fool in love

Never learns

But I guess I forgot

'Cause the fire was too hot...

Now I've gone from burning to burned

Oh I guess I forgot

'Cause the fire was too hot...

Now I've gone from burning to burned
