Black and white lies from left to right Are in the letter I write tonight I stopped being lonely when you left And I'm now, at the top, among the best
I've had to burn most every bridge I've crossed It seems like every time I've loved, I'd lost When I met you, I thought the time would turn Now you're
(Burning mem'ries, burning mem'ries) (Memories of you that I can't lose) Tonight I'm burning old love letters Photographs and memories of you Hoping
When a man plays with fire, he gets burnt fingers When he's a playin' with desire, he gets burnt fingers When a man starts to trifle and leaves his true
Born to lose, I've lived my life in vain Every dream has only brought me pain All my life I've always been so blue Born to lose and now I'm losing you
By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be rising She'll find the note I left hanging on her door She'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leaving
Tonight in the bar alone I'm sitting Apart from the laughter and the cheer Scenes from the past rise before me While watchin' the bubbles in my beer
A bright array of city lights as far as I can see. The great white wave shines through the night for lonely guys like me. The cabaretes and honky tonks
I tried so hard my dear, to show that you're my every dream Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme A memory from your lonesome past
When I left the trees, had no green leaves Like your love everything had died I said, ?If I ever come back to you It'll be a cold day in July? The winter

These lyin' lips said, they'd forget Those same lovin' arms that I miss This foolish heart that let me part From those sweet, tender lips, I long to kiss
Oh, Danny Boy The pipes, the pipes are callin' From Glen to Glen And down the mountain side The summer's gone And all the roses fallin' It's you, it'
I'm drifting into deep water I'm startin' to care for you You're getting me in deep water Be careful what you do You wanna romance but I'm seeking love
Crazy, crazy for feeling so lonely I'm crazy, crazy for feeling so blue I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted And then some day you'd leave me for
Don't let the stars get in your eyes Don't let the moon break your heart Love blooms at night, in daylight it dies Don't let the stars get in your eyes
She can give you a reason to live if she wants to She can make you forget other loves that you have known She has two lips and two arms that thrill you
Always I'll be loving you, always With a love that's true, always When the things you plan Need a helping hand I will understand Always, always Days
