That a friend of mine gave one night
I asked you to take a ride with me
And with a smile you said all right.

Beside the road I stopped to kiss you
And that's when I found the real meaning of fire
We found the match and then we struck it
And the flame went higher and higher.

And I never thought I'd fall
So much in love with you
But when I tasted love like this
It wasn't hard to do.

And it sure feels good to know
You make my life so heavenly
And the match we are
Will keep the flame burning eternally.

What could have been one night of lovin'
Became wildfire out of control
And I'm so proud I met you darlin'
And we stopped there beside the road.

For my life is now worth livin'
I've been needing someone like you for so long
We found a match and then we struck it
And the flame just keeps burning on and on.

And I never thought I'd fall
So much in love with you
But when I tasted love like this
It wasn't hard to do.

And it sure feels good to know
You make my life so heavenly
And the match we are
Will keep the flame burning eternally
