Silver Spoon - Burning Both Ends songtekst
Je score:
It was a picture perfect postcard day When I followed her down the road, A day to get to heaven, a day to drop your load And as I walk down smiling on the street I heard again the words she'd said to me: You know I am burning, they say It's better to burn out than it is to rust So I am burning darling, away The gravel and the dust, I am burning both ends, And if I don't last the day, Tell my friends of the light When I was burning away On such a really picture postcard day We went the longest road, Thru places where we had lived, Thru places we had roamed And when at last we got where we should be I heard again the words she'd said to me: And so I am burning, they say It's better to burn out than to fade away So I am burning darling, today, And I know that it won't last, I am burning both ends, And as I may not last the day, Tell my friends of the light When I was burning away It was a really perfect postcard day When she went down to her last home, A perfect day to get some rest, A day like seldom come And as the ground was closing and she was set free I heard again the words she'd said to me: And now I am burning, they say It's better to burn out than just disappear I am burning darling, away It's getting dark but I have no fear I am burning both ends, And as I won't last the day, Tell my friends of the flames When I was burning away
