Song Lyrics

This mornin is Monday
Where are you now?
Teasin' my memory
Tellin' me how
To lay low when I don't want to
Your love is elusive
This I know now
It's makin' me crazy
Leavin' me out in the open
When I don't want to
Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down more than I've already been
Just like a wildfire, you're runnin' all over town
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
The moments of pleasure
Never do last
They're gone like a suitcase
Full of your past
Long gone
And in a hurry
Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down more than I've already been
Just like a wildfire, you're runnin' all over town
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
You're runnin' all over town
As much as you burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
Just like a wildfire, you're runnin' all over town
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
