Burn Lyrics by Melanie C

The Sea

2011

[Verse 1]
If I were somebody else
I'd be calling me stupid
But I still do this
No way that you're gonna change
Nothing to say that I wanna hear
I gotta get outta here

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been driving down this road with my eyes closed
Tryin' to get lost
But I know I'll be back again
And it's easy to escape
But as long as there's a way I can reach you
I know it's never gonna be over

[Chorus]
I'm throwin' matches
I'm lightin' dynamite
It never catches
This bridge won't burn
I drop the lighter
Into the gasoline
No fire
This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-urn
This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-u-u-urn

[Verse 2]
Can't even say it's your fault
'Cos I know it's me
That let you let me down
Another last chance
But I'm not fooling anyone
You know better than anyone

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been driving down this road with my eyes closed
Tryin' to get lost
But I know I'll be back again
And it's easy to escape
But as long as there's a way I can reach you
I know it's never gonna be over

[Chorus]
I'm throwin' matches
I'm lightin' dynamite
It never catches
This bridge won't burn
I drop the lighter
Into the gasoline
No fire
This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-urn
This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-u-u-urn

[Bridge]
Maybe there's a reason that I'd
Rather be lonely with you
Than lonely alo-o-one
Tell me the reason why I'd
Rather be lonely with you
Than lonely alo-o-o-o-one

[Break]
I'm throwin' matches
I'm lightin' dynamite
It never catches
This bridge won't bu-u-urn
This bridge won't bu-u-u-u-u-u-urn

[Chorus]
I'm throwin' matches
I'm lightin' dynami-ite
It never catches
This bridge won't burn
I dropped the lighter
Into the gasoline
No fire
This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-urn
This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-urn
This bridge won't burn, burn, bu-urn
This bridge won't burn
