Burned

(Sheila Blackburn)

Sometimes you just can't 'give' any more in a relationship. It feels like which ever way you go you are going to be hurt. These lyrics capture the feelings of withdrawing from the fray for self protection.

So good when we first met like lightning strike I thought that we were home and dry You set a fire to keep me warm and safe You'd never want to see me burned Too many times I just get burned But It got so complicated, I don’t know Got hard to know which way to turn Can't find the words no more to make you smile Always waiting to get burned Too many times I just get burned I used to know just where I stood with you Now I don’t know what’s in your mind You cut the ground right out from under me Always waiting to get burned Too many times I just get burned Hard to find the will to carry on We’re walking on two different roads No point in laying out my heart to you Always waiting to get burned Too many times I just get burned CHORUS I need more space so I can breathe I need more time so I can turn I need some quiet nights so I can sleep Too many times I just get burned

Ich will heut nur Kuscheln!

By AQUABA


Mein sonst geliebter Mann kommt nach Hause und ist voller Frust und was will er? Nur das Eine, doch ich hab heute keine Lust und will nur mit ihm kuscheln. Ein lockerer Text, den das Leben schrieb. Refrain zum Mitsingen.
