Carry your lines on my face -
all these desert days
Burnin' Blue
Lyrics by Mick Evans
I’m dyin’
too tired to care for nothin’
can’t get goin’ -
just want a hole
to close my eyes and lie in -
forget the sun comes up
waste what’s mine
I’m weepin’
too lost to care for no-one
can’t get sleepin’ -
just feel a heart so low
there ain’t no liftin’
rememberin’ our nights
it’s you I’m missin’
Burnin’ cold
burning blue
burnin’ up in you -
you catch me fallin’
you cut me in two -
burnin’ cold
burnin’ up in you
burnin’ blue
I’m sighin’
so hard to keep on breathin’
hope keeps leavin’
driftin’ in an ocean of nothin’
drownin’ in your kiss
can’t keep me livin’
Burnin’ cold
burning blue
burnin’ up in you -
you catch me fallin’
you cut me in two -
burnin’ cold
burnin’ up in you
burnin’ blue
Carry your lines on my face
all these desert days
wake in your shadow
but that cruel sun don’t stay
Burnin’ cold
burning blue
burnin’ up in you -
you catch me fallin’
you cut me in two -
burnin’ cold
burnin’ up in you
burnin’ blue
