Lyrics George Jones

George Jones

WE FOUND A MATCH

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
