Burn Baby Burn Lyrics

You swore you'd never forget how that snowy day felt

With ice on the roof your heart started to melt

The sun left you blind for a moment or two

You stumbled and tripped, then retied your shoe

Wherever fires burn smoke gets in the rafters

Hazy pictures turn, swirling ever faster

You can see each frame, but you can't place the name

Burn baby burn

You didn't have gloves and your hands almost froze

Lips chapped and raw, couldn't feel your nose

Back at the cabin, back in the warmth

Came back to the living with the girl from the north

Wherever fires burn smoke gets in the rafters

Hazy pictures turn, swirling ever faster

You can see each frame, but you can't place the name

Burn baby burn

Eyes like a raven, or like her coffee jet black

Lips of crushed berry, her breath was cognac

A fur on her shoulder was all she had on

Your head hit the pillow, when you woke she was gone

Wherever fires burn smoke gets in the rafters

Hazy pictures turn, swirling ever faster

You can see each frame, but you can't place the name

Burn baby burn
