Burn

THE CURE

BURN

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 sleep
this trembling, adored, toussled bird-mad girl

every night i burn
every night i call your name
every night i burn
every night i fall again
don't talk of love the shadows purr
murmuring me away from you
don't talk of worlds that never were

the end is all that's ever true
there's nothing you can ever say
nothing 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

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
when 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 screams
every night i burn
dream the crow black dream
dream the crow black dream
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,
screaming the animal scream
Every night I burn,
dreaming the crow-black dream.
yeah, yeah Dreaming the crow-black dream...
