I'm Playing With Fire

Rudy Vallee · The Voice That Had Them Fainting: 1928-1937 [2012]

I've heard about you

Each word about you

That ev'ryone has spoken

And from the things I hear

I should be careful, dear

They come and find me

And then remind me

Of all the hearts you've broken

But I'm in love with you

So what am I to do?



[Chorus]

I'm playing with fire

I'm gonna get burned

I know it, but what can I do?



I know my heart must be content to go

Where it is sent, although

I may repent when I'm through

But what can I do?



I'm playing with fire

I'm gonna get burned

While merry-go-rounding with you



But I go for my ride

With my eyes open wide

I'm playing with fire

I know it, but what can I do?
