Ohh it's a shame
I'ts a shame it's a shame
The flame of love is about to die
Somebody fan the fire
The flame of love is about to die
Somebody fan the fire
Love is dyin' today
Somebody fan the fire
The flame of love is dyin' I say
We gonna fan the fire
Come on along
Little children starving
In a foreign land
Talk about it brother
Man afraid to take
His brother's hand
(Fan the fire, fan the fire)
Woman in trouble callin'
But nobody cares
(Fan the fire, fan the fire)
People denied the rights
That are truly theirs
(It's a shame)
I believe, I believe
(I believe, I believe)
I believe, I believe
(I believe, I believe)
I believe the flame of
Love is about to die
(Fan the fire, fan the fire)
The flame of love is about to die
Somebody fan the fire
Flame of love is about to die
We're gonna fan the fire
Come on along
Violence striking down
Great men of peace
Poverty in the homes
And crime in the streets
(Fan the fire, fan the fire)
Kind-hearted people turnin' to hate
(Fan the fire, fan the fire)
Man's about to destroy the human race
(It's a shame)
I believe, I believe
(I believe, I believe)
I believe, I believe
(I believe, I believe)
I believe the flame of
Love is about to die
(Fan the fire, fan the fire)
Ohh it's a shame
I'ts a shame it's a shame
The flame of love is about to die
Somebody fan the fire
The flame of love is about to die
Somebody fan the fire
Love is dyin' today
Somebody fan the fire
The flame of love is dyin' I say
We gonna fan the fire
Come on along
Fan the fire, fan the firebr>
I believe the flame of
Love is about to die
