Roscoe & Etta - Burn Lyrics




Burn

Does anybody send postcards or long love letters
Does anybody call anybody anymore
For worse or for better
Oh, these are the days we throw away
Like they weren't made to last

I wish you wrote me
With a pen and signed your name
Staring at the backlight
Doesn't feel the same
I'd beg I'd steal for something real
I could hold and think of you

Every message, photo gone
But it's not enough somehow I'm still not moving on
There's one last corner I know I could turn
If you just left me something I could burn

Even just an old scrap
A grocery list gone by
Something I could light up
Watch the smoke rise to the sky
I'm so close to giving up your ghost
And never looking back

Every message, photo gone
But it's not enough somehow I'm still not moving on
There's one last corner I know I could turn
If you just left me something I could burn
I wish you'd left me something I could burn

Just to watch it burn
Raise a glass, strike a match
Let the past be past, ash to ashes

Every message, photo gone
But it's not enough somehow I'm still not moving on
There's one last corner I know I could turn
If you just left me something I could burn
Oh, I wish you'd left me something I could burn
