I light up my lantern for another night This old heart of mine ain't feeling right Seems like all old lovers get to be bad news The ones you try so hard to hold you turn around and lose Burning mem'ries to feel the flame Of a love grown cold no one to blame Wishful thinking things were still the same I'm burning mem'ries just to feel the flame Right outside my window in a blue street light A couple slowly walking home and holding tight While my arms are aching it's not my turn There's just a few more memories I've left to burn Burning mem'ries to feel the flame... I'm burning mem'ries just to feel the flame
