Ball In The House Burned Lyrics

Burned Lyrics

Verse 1:

What in the world has come over me?

The sounds of the
lakefront move me no more

I only feel the searing pain upon my face

Where pale innocence played before, and

If Id only known I would have
tried to circumvent it

Or at least made my way to the shade

I blame
Garcia Vega and the songs that we sang

For the pathetic mess of me that
you made

Chorus:

When you burned me, you stole away my smile

When you burned me, I used to like your style

But you burned me, and
now I have to go slow

And you burned me, but Ill see you again
tomorrow

Verse 2:

Next time we meet please stay behind a cloud

And gaze down upon me though the mist

I need you there to comfort me
and guide my way

But not for my skin to be kissed

They told me youd
be hiding on vacation for the weekend

And I thought that I might have to
cry

But having you above me was the only thing I needed

That starts
me on the itch now that Im dry

Chorus

Bridge:

Youre the talk
of the town whether you show or you dont

I wish I believed that you will
but you wont

Come out now to dry away my tears

I havent been burned
this badly in years

(Why do I stay, when you burn?)

Chorus

When you burned me, burned me

When you burned me, and now Ive got to
go slow

And you burned me, but Ill see you again tomorrow
