I had a dream about a burning house You were stuck inside I couldn't get you out I laid beside you and pulled you close And the two of us went up in smoke We're going down And you can see it, too We're going down And you know that we're doomed My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning house My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room I was the one you always dreamed of You were the one I tried to draw How dare you say it's nothing to me? Baby, you're the only light I ever saw I'll make the most of all the sadness You'll be a bitch because you can You'll try to hit me just to hurt me So you leave me feeling dirty Because you can't understand I've been sleepwalking Been wandering all night Trying to take what's lost and broken Make it right I've been sleepwalking Too close to the fire But it's the only place that I can hold you tight In this burning house My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room Don't you think we oughta know by now? Don't you think we should've learned somehow? Don't you think we oughta know by now? Don't you think we should've learned somehow? Don't you think we oughta know by now? Don't you think we should've learned somehow? My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning house My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room I've been sleepwalking Been wandering all night Trying to take what's lost and broken Make it right And I've been sleepwalking Too close to the fire But it's the only place that I can hold you tight In this burning house We're going down And you can see it, too We're going down And you know that we're doomed My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning house My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room
