Burn Lyrics - The Cure

"Don't look, don't look," the shadows breathe 

Whispering me away from you 

Don't wake at night to watch her sleep 

You know that you will always lose 

This trembling, adored, tousled bird mad girl 

But every night I burn 

Every night I call your name 

Every night I burn 

Every night I fall again 

"Oh don't talk of love," the shadows purr 

Murmuring me away from you

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Don't talk of worlds that never were 

The end is all that's ever true 

There's nothin' you can ever say 

Nothin' you can ever do 

Still every night I burn 

Every night I scream your name 

Every night I burn 

Every night the dream's the same 

Every night I burn 

Waiting for my only friend 

Every night I burn 

Waiting for the world to end 

---BREAK--- 

"Just paint your face," the shadows smile 

Slipping me away from you 

Oh it doesn't matter how you hide 

Find you if we're wanting to 

So slide back down and close your eyes 

Sleep awhile, you must be tired 

But every night I burn 

Every night I call your name 

Every night I burn 

Every night I fall again 

Every night I burn 

Scream the animal scream 

Every night I burn 

Dream the crow black dream 

Every night I burn 

Scream the animal scream 

Every night I burn 

Dream the crow black dream 

Dream the crow black dream 

Dream the crow black dream 

Dream the crow black dream 

Dream the crow black dream
