Flesh on Fire Songtext

von James House

She sat so quietly there in the candlelight.
And every strand of her hair was so beautiful.
I can't believe she was only a dream tonight.
I can't believe I won't see her again.
Wishing she'd return.
Feeling like I'm burning up, my flesh is on fire.
I search the clubs, the cafes and the boulevard.
But every blonde on display is a neon doll.
They're all so flashy and trashy and try too hard.
I can't believe you were only a dream.
Baby please return.
Don't you know I'm burning up, my flesh is on fire.
I'm desperate now. I don't know how to find you.
There's someone new who's hiding you.
I wish I knew where that could be.
I'm knocking down each door in town to find you.
I see your face in empty space.
Oh no! This can't happen to me.
What started out as a dream is a nightmare now.
And when it scares me I scream and no sound comes out.
It must be blood cos' this isn't just sweat on my brow.
I've got to believe you'll turn out to be real.
Promise you'll return.
Can't you see I'm burning up, my flesh is on fire.
Yeeeaahhhhh!
