Burning

I know my words may ring untrue

But if it's all the same to you

I'd like to take a moment

Just to tell you who I am

I'm not the man I was before

An arsonist with no remorse

But I won't make excuses

For the things I put you through

When I was young I knew it all

I took their wisdom, threw it off

Just to find out much too late

I never knew enough

Cause I hurt the one true love I found

I let your heart drop to the ground

I hate myself for who I was

But babe I come around, oh

Honey I'm coming home

And everything is burning

But I burn for you alone

Honey I'm coming home

'Til they put me in the ground

You will never be alone

Well these dogs are drawn to you

Just like moth's drawn to a flame

And I can hardly blame 'em

Cause I'm drawn to you the same

And every one could be a ten

But standin' next to you

Can't no one hold a candle

Cause not one of them is you

Honey I'm coming home

And everything is burning

But I burn for you alone

Honey I'm coming home

'Til they put me in the ground

You will never be alone

I know I failed ya, but I'm

More than a failure

And while you shiver and shake

I swear the day's about to break

But until then, if you're cold

Girl I won't let you go

And when the wind tries to bite

I'll keep you warm tonight

Oh

Honey I'm coming home

'Til they put me in the ground

You will never be alone

Honey I'm coming home

And everything is burning

But I burn for you alone

Yeah I burn for you alone

Oh

Yes I burn for you

I burn for you alone

Oh, oh
