    Red face Looking for old Temptations song

    This is a very old song and part of the lyrics refer to a wall of fire. Sorry for being vague but that is all I can remember.

    Could the lyrics be "ball of fire"? If so, it's the song "I Can't Think Of A Thing At All".


    Now, if a rock, should separate us.
    I'm gonna think of a way I can move that rock.
    (Move the rock, move the rock)

    And if a clock, should keep me waiting.
    I'm gonna think of a way I can speed the clock.
    (Speed the clock, speed the clock)

    And if a wall is between us.
    I'm gonna think of a way I can climb that wall.

    I tried to think of something I wouldn't do.
    Baby, to get a little closer to you.
    You know what?
    I couldn't think of a thing at all.
    I couldn't think of a thing at all.

    Now, if an opinion should become between us.
    I'm gonna think of a way we can reach an agreement.
    (An agreement, an agreement)

    And if a brick floor, should be between us.
    I'm gonna think of a way I can dig through the ceiling.
    (Through the ceiling, through the ceiling)

    If there's a ball of fire between us.
    I'm gonna think of a way to get through that ball.

    I tried to think of something I wouldn't do.
    Baby, to get a little closer to you.
    You know what?
    I couldn't think of a thing at all.
    Baby, I couldn't think of a thing at all.
    Hmmm

    Yeah, yeah.

    Now if a million miles, should separate us.
    I'm gonna think of a way I can cross those miles.
    (Cross the miles, cross the miles)

    And if my actions, begin to bore ya.
    I'm gonna think of a way I can change my style.
    (Change my style, change my style)

    And if there's burning hall between us.
    I'm gonna think of a way to get down that hall.

    I tried to think of something I wouldn't do.
    Hey, to get a little closer to you.
    You know what?
    I couldn't think of a thing at all.
    Believe me. (I couldn't think of a thing at all)
    Hear what I say. (I couldn't think of a thing at all)
    Believe when I tell ya. (I couldn't think of a thing at all)
    I tried and I tried. (I couldn't think of a thing at all)
