Griffin House - Burning Up the Night lyrics

rate me

Ever since you left

Everything has changed

We’ll never be the same again

This place has seemed so strange

I needed to get out of here

There’s sadness in this town

But every time I moved away

It’s followed me around

And I don’t need a song to sing

I don’t need anything at all

I don’t even need to dance

I can just stand with my back against the wall

So I can see the way you feel

So I can know the thoughts that run through your mind

I wasn’t giving up on you

You used to seem impossible to deny

Tell me there’s a reason why I’m here

I need to believe it

Here I go again

Burning up the night

Even though I couldn’t resist

I told myself I could

And hoped to God I always felt like this

She can’t decide if I’m a king or trash

She loves me for the Johnny

But she hates me for the Cash

And you can only take so much

If you could see the way I feel

If you could know the thoughts that run through my mind

I wasn’t giving up on you

It used to seem impossible to deny

Tell me there’s a reason why I’m here

I need to believe it

Here I go again

Burning up the night

You can’t escape the morning

When there’s someone on your mind

I been doing this for years now

And can’t break any ground

And I don’t know what to do but keep on moving on

Wouldn’t I be your shoulder?

Wouldn’t I have broken your fall?

Does it still hurt?

Now that you’re older have you healed at all?

Here I go again

Burning up the night

You can’t escape the morning

When there’s someone on your mind

A man can feel like he’s in hell

When he doesn’t want to be

In a place where what’s inside of him

Is all that’s left to see
