Burnin` The Midnight Oil — текст песни (The Foghat)

Peverett - Riff Bros. Music - ASCAP




Shoulda` listened to someone, love has gone, I`ve got nowhere to run.
I shoulda` listened to someone, love has gone, I`ve got nowhere to run.

She`s gone and I know, that the pain is beginnin` to show, I`m hurting inside.
My world fell apart, but love`s still burning in my heart, but where can I hide?

Love turned to stone, and I`m tired of bein` alone,
Yeah, burnin` the midnight oil - Yeah, burnin` the midnight oil.

There`s a voice in my head runnin` over everything she said, and I can`t erase it.
Love was a game, well I lost and it`s a cryin` shame, but I gotta face it.

Nowhere to go, and time is moving slow,
Yeah, burnin` the midnight oil - Yeah, burnin`...

Burnin` the midnight oil - hot water getting ready to boil,
Drink coffee `til my nerves are wired - I`m so high, I think I`ll never be tired.
Feeling sad and I`m mad, all the bad luck that I`ve had.

{Rod - Solo}

Shoulda` listened to someone, love has gone, I`ve got nowhere to run.
I shoulda` listened to someone, love has gone, I`ve got nowhere to run.
Shoulda` listened to someone, love has gone, I`ve got nowhere to run.
I shoulda` listened to someone, love has gone, I`ve got nowhere to run.

I`ll lay back on my bed, memories runnin` through my head, I tried to forget.
The clock`s striking twelve, I`m still trying to convince myself it`s not over yet.
Love turned to stone, and I`m tired of bein` alone,
Yea, burnin` the midnight oil - Yea-ee-yea, burnin` the midnight oil.
