Between Fire and Water

Hank Snow · The Singing Ranger: 1949-1953 [Bear Family] [1989]

(Sol Marcus - Eddie Seller - Ralph Care)



You're mine for awhile till a new face appears

And then you're no longer with me

They call me a fool and laugh at my tears

For they know I'll never be free.



Between fire and water that's where you got me

I get burned every time I'm with you

Between fire and water I cry an ocean

'Cause without you I'm bluer than blue.



My love cannot die if you break my heart

I'll want you the rest of my days

I try to forget that each time I start

I'm still but a slave to your way.



Between fire and water that's where you got me

I get burned every time I'm with you

Between fire and water I cry an ocean

'Cause without you I'm bluer than blue.



--- Instrumental ---



Between fire and water that's where you got me

I get burned every time I'm with you

Between fire and water I cry an ocean

'Cause without you I'm bluer than blue...
