Chorus: (4x) mama said that nothing burns like fire
When I was just a boy
I lost my favorite toy
Mama said now listen son
Life is full of fun
Don't lose yourself in the past
Cause years go by too fast
I only had one thing in mind
That's not to waste my time
Chorus: (2x) mama said that nothing burns like fire
Like fire
Like fire
Fell in love for the first time
Gave away my heart
Mama said now listen son
Life is full of fun
Don't hide yourself in a shell
Use your lifetime well
I kept one thing in mind
I'd never waste my time
Chorus: (4x) mama said that nothing burns like fire
("solo")
When you were just a boy
You lost your favorite toy
I'm tellin' you to listen son
Life is full of fun
Don't lose yourself in the past
Cause years go by too fast
So listen to me, keep in mind
Learn to use your time
Chorus: (4x) mama said that nothing burns like fire
