We turn in for the night
In our first house away from home
And I recall on that day
She gave that corner man her pay
We live in revelry
She stares at the door
Holding her hands against her keys
And she whispers to me
Love I know we can't be
Anything
Lonely Miss Kerosene
Would you tell me if I was wrong
Would you love me or would you let me go
Or burn me into your arms
Sewn are the days
Marked by holes and marked by tears
Covering us now
By the shame that we wear
That we wear
Lonely Miss Kerosene
Would you tell me if I was wrong
Would you love me or would you let me go
Or burn me into your arms
Lonely Miss Kerosene
Would you tell me if I was wrong
Would you love me or would you let me go
Or burn me into your arms
Gone are the days
And dark are the nights
Were we lost against it all?
Were we lost against it all?
She stares at the door
Holding her hands against her keys
And she whispers to me
Love I know we can't be
Anything, anymore
Anything
Lonely Miss Kerosene
Would you tell me if I was wrong
Would you love me or would you let me go
Or burn me into your arms
Lonely Miss Kerosene
Would you tell me if I was wrong
If I was wrong would you let me go
Or burn me into your arms
