Burning Embers

Lou Reed

Fly through the glass of a window pane

Fall through the sky feeling the rain

Walk on broken glass your Tell-Tale Heart



Look through the bars of a dirty jail cell

Soar to heaven dive to hell – listen to your Tell-Tale Heart



Setting fires in the ghost twilight

We see you dress we bolt with fright

You see an apparition disappear



Ah... jump to the table jump up the stairs

Stand on the rooftop looking out through the air

Walk on broken glass your Tell-Tale Heart



Lenore am I dreaming

How can death keep us apart

Lenore I see you burning...

And I'd... walk on burning embers

Walk on burning embers

Walk on burning embers Tell-Tale Heart



Walk on burning embers

Walk on burning embers

Walk on burning embers

Tell-Tale Heart
