Lyrics
I've got good reason - to be thinking of
Ways to recall that - you were once here with
Me ...
Thinking of all the - things that you told me
You know I listened - but it's so hard to
Hear ... hear your voice ... ya ... hear your voice ... I'm missing it and -
The living room is full of people that I hardly know,
Full of hugs and reassurance,
Quiet faces, sympathy - why can't they just see?
That won't stop the Burning Burning inside of me,
No, that won't stop the Burning Burning inside of me.
All of your things are - still at my house and
I'll just have to find a - place to put it all a-
Way ...
Why did you have to - leave me here with the
Strangely familiar - feeling you were gonna
Go ... where'd you go? ... where'd you go? ... Well we all go someday -
I think I've seen this in the movies ... Think I've seen this in the movies ...
I think I've seen this in the movies, doesn't feel the same,
And I don't want to be in this one
All I want's a happy ending, one for you and me
But I can't stop the Burning Burning inside of me,
No, I can't stop the Burning Burning inside of me.
Why did you have to - leave me here with this?
Why don't you hear me? - why so damned silent?
Please just one more time - please just one time for
Me ... just for me ... hey ... what about me? ...
I'm Burning, Burning.
