Both Ends Burning

Roxy Music

Please don't ever let me down

'Cause you know I'm not so sure

Do I have the speed to carry on

Burn you out of my mind, I know

You're a flame that never fades

Jungle red's a deadly shade

Both ends burning, will the fires keep

Somewhere deep in my soul tonight

Both ends burning

Burning

Burn

Now my course is plain as day

Running bold across to play

Both ends burning with a strange desire

That feeds the fire in my soul tonight

I will dance the night away

Living only for today

Both ends burning while you're counting sheep

Hell-- who can sleep in this heat this night?

Tell me will I ever learn?

It's too late, the rush is on

Both ends burning and I can't control

The fires raging in my soul tonight

Oh will it never end?

Put your foot around the bend

Drive me crazy to an early grave

Tell me what is there to save tonight

Both ends burning

Burning

Burn

Keep on burning till the end, until the end

Keep on burning till the end, the very end
