Burning House Lyrics (original by CAM)
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
Love isn’t all that it seems I did you wrong
I’ll stay here with you until this dream is gone
I’ve been sleepwalking, been wandering all night
Trying to take what’s lost and broke and 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
See you at a party and you look the same
I could take you back but people don’t ever change
Wish that we could go back in time
I’d be the one you thought you’d find
Love isn’t all that it seems I did you wrong
I’ll stay here with you until this dream is gone
I’ve been sleepwalking, been wandering all night
Trying to take what’s lost and broke and 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
The flames are getting bigger now
In this burning house
I can hold on to you somehow
In this burning house
Oh, and I don’t wanna wake up
In this burning house
And I’ve been sleepwalking, been wandering all night
Trying to take what’s lost and broke and 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
