Robert Plant - Burning Down One Side lyrics

rate me

Slipped through the window by the back door

caught short in transit with my love

jumped up, fell back, cut off from romance,

How could I fall without a shove

Tip-toed like thunder on my feelings

you rock gently with your sighs

My knees are weak; my head is reeling

consumed by the fire in your eyes

Stepped in and shattered my defences,

just playing hookey with my heart

slipped through my window by the back door

and took the keys to my poor heart, yes my poor heart

try as I might, try as I may, yes I'll try anything to make you stay

cause I need your love, yes I need you love, yes I need your love

oh I need you love,

I'm looking high I'm looking low,

Can't find where did my baby, gotta find out why she ranaway

I don't know where did my baby stay,

try as I might try as I may,

yes I'll try anything to make you stay

Fire down the Boulevard d'Amour,

shot through the neon in the night

Hot foot through alleys check the door ways

try that old parking lot on Ninth

There's three course kissing in the same place,

but that don't help me out no more,

I've been away so long and dreaming,

little girl ain't I seen you before
