(Burning down love)
(Burning down love)
I want to run, I want to hide
I want to break down the walls that hold me inside
I want to reach out, and touch the flame
Where the streets have no name
Ah-ha-ah
I want to feel the sun on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear without a trace

I came across a cache of old photos
And invitations to teenage parties
'Dress in white' one said, with quotations
From someone's wife, a famous writer
In my nineteen-twenties

When you're young you find inspiration
In anyone who's ever gone
And opened up a closing door

I get out of bed at half past ten
Phone up a friend, who's a party animal
Turn on the news and drink some tea
Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping

One day I'll read, or learn to drive a car
If you pass the test, you can beat the rest
But I don't like to compete, or talk street, street, street
I can pick up the best from the party animal

All day, all day

I don't know why, I don't know how
I thought I loved you, but I'm not sure now
I've seen you look at strangers too many times
The love you want is of a different kind

Remember when we felt the sun
A love like paradise, how hot it burned

(Beats)
(H-H-Heartbeats)
Every time I see you something happens to me
Like a chain reaction between you and me
My heart starts missing a beat
My heart starts missing a beat
Every time
Oh oh oh, every time
Oh oh oh, every time

Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could
Little things I should have said and done
I never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

You always wanted a lover
I only wanted a job
I've always worked for my living
How am I gonna get through?
How am I gonna get through?

I come here looking for money
(Got to have it)
And end up living with love, oh, oh

When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin

Lost in the high street, where the dogs run
roaming suburban boys
Mother's got her hair do to be done
She says they're too old for toys
Stood by the bus stop with a felt pen
in this suburban hell
and in the distance a police car
to break the suburban spell
Let's take a ride

Sometimes you're better off dead
There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad, too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables
In a restaurant in a West End town
Call the police, there's a madman around
Running down underground to a dive bar
In a West End town

On the first page of our story
the future seemed so bright
then this thing turned out so evil
I don't know why I'm still surprised
even angels have their wicked schemes
and you take that to new extremes
but you'll always be my hero
even though you've lost your mind

The mood is set (huh huh) So you already know what's next (uh huh, uh)
TV on blast turn it down, turn it down
Don't want it to clash when my body screamin' out now (ohhh)
I know you hearin' me (ohhhh) You got me moanin' now
I got a secret that I wanna show you oh,
I got a secret so I'mma drop it to the flo' oh
No teasin', you waited long enough, go deep,
imma throw it at cha can't catch it
Don't hold back, you know I like it rough

You're not easy to love
You're not easy to love, no
You're not easy to love
You're not easy to love, no

Why is everything with you so complicated
Why do you make it hard to love you Oh I hate it
Cos if you really wanna be alone
I will throw my hands up cos baby I tried

eenie, meenie, minie, mo
get ya by ya toe
if ya want to let him go

Ladies don't worry cause they got plenty more
they are falling like the rain so we aint running out
falling like the rain so we aint running out
falling like the rain so we aint running out
oh its raining men girl what you worry 'bout

I didn't mean to end his life, I know it wasn't right
I can't even sleep at night, can't get it off my mind
I need to get out of sight 'for I end up behind, bars
What started out as a simple altercation,
turned into a real sticky situation
Me just thinkin' all the time that
I'm best and makes me wanna cry

Cus I didn't mean to hurt him, coulda been somebody's son

Chest to chest
Nose to nose
Palm to palm
We were always just that close
Wrist to wrist Toe to toe
Lips that felt just like the inside of a rose
So how come when I reach out my finger
It feels like more than distance between us

I want you to love me, like I'm a hot guy
Keep thinkin' of me, doin' what you like
So boy forget about the world cuz it's gon' be me and you tonight
I wanna make your bed for ya, then imma make you swallow your pride

Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world...

You say you love me
Well they feel like words to me
Well this just ain't working
Stop thinking you can run over me
I'm drifting, I'm settling
Off to a foreign place
If I can't see what's in front of me
It's a mystery, well then apparently

Cheers to the freakin weekend
I drink to that, yeah yeah
Oh let the jameson sink in
I drink to that, yeah yeah
Don't let the bastards get ya down
Turn it around with another round
There's a party at the bar everybody putcha glasses up
and I drink to that
I drink to thaaaaaaaat.

Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
whats my name, whats my name

I heard you good with them soft lips
Yeah you know word of mouth
