House On Fire

We got on like a house on fire
They had to hose us down
But not before our relationship
Had spread all over town
The insurance didn't cover it
The policy was void
Which was unfortunate because
Everything was destroyed

I gave you the cold shoulder
And it melted down my back
I mistook it for your tears
Gave you a little slack
We got on like a house on fire
For seven years we dated
But eventually our love ran dry
And you evaporated.
