Burning Down One Side Lyrics - Singles - Robert Plant

Slipped through the window by the back door 

Caught short in transit with my love 

Jumped up, fell back, cut off from romance 

How could I fall without a shove? 

Tiptoe like thunder on my feelings 

You rock me gently with your sighs 

My knees are weak, my head is reeling 

Consumed by fire in your eyes... 

Don'tcha know why? 

Goodness no! Why? 

Stepped in and shattered my defenses 

Just playing hookey with my heart 

Slipped through the window by the back door 

And took the keys to my poor heart 

Yes my poor heart 

Try as I might, try as I may 

Yes I'll I try anything to just make you stay 

'Cuz I need your love, yes I need your love 

Ooh I need your love, yes I need your love 

I'm looking high I'm looking low 

Tryin' to find where did my baby go 

Gotta find out why she ran away 

I don't know, where did my baby stay? 

Try as I might, try as I may 

Oh I'll try anything to just make you stay 

Just find that 'Boulevard d'Amour' 

Shoot through a neon in the night 

Hotfoot through alleys, check the doorways 

Try that old parking lot on 9th 

There's three-course kissing in the same way 

Oh but that don't help me none no more 

I've been away so long and dreaming 

Little girl ain't I seen you before? 

Ooh little girl...
