Lyrics

Growin' up he was tagged a rebel

She was the smoke, he was the fire

They had the time of their lives together

Turning it up higher and higher

Now people talk about the two of them

And just shake their heads

It's all just a cryin' shame

He's got a heart she'll never tame

He can't give it up, never give his heart away

Can't give it up, never gonna give it away

Gets it in the night, hides it from the light of day

Ooh yeah, he's too wild to tame

He got hooked on the spotlight

Fortune and fame, one-night stands

Under the spell of the hot lights

He had it all in the palm of his hand

Now she's waitin' in the wings

And feelin' alone in the crowd

Their love is just a distant fire

He's too wild and she's too proud

He can't give it up, never give his heart away

Can't give it up, never gonna give it away

Gets it in the night, hides it from the light of day

Can't give it up, he's too wild to tame

Growin' up he was tagged a rebel

He was the smoke, she was the fire

They had the time of their lives together

Turning it up higher and higher

People talk about the two of them

And just shake their heads

It's all just a cryin' shame

He's got a heart she'll never tame

He can't give it up, he'll never give his heart away

Can't give it up, never gonna give it away

He gets it in the night, hides it from the light of day

Can't give it up, he's too wild to tame
