Burned

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 i'd 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 i'll 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 you'd 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 i'm dry

Chorus

Bridge:

You're the talk of the town whether you show or you don't

I wish i believed that you will but you won't

Come out now to dry away my tears

I haven't 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 i've got to go slow

And you burned me, but i'll see you again tomorrow
