Lyrics to Both Ends Burning (Live 2001)

Lyrics to the song Both Ends Burning as recorded by Roxy Music.

(Ferry)

Please don't ever let me down
For you know I'm not so sure
Do I have the speed to carry on?
Burn you out of my mind?, I know
You're a flame that never fades
Jungle red's a deadly shade
Both ends burning, will the fires meet
Somewhere deep in my soul tonight?

Both ends burning, burning, burn
Both ends burning, burning, burn

Now my course is plain as day
Running bold and world to play
Both ends burning with a strange desire
That feeds the fire in my soul tonight
I will dance the night away living only for today
Both ends burning while you're counting sheep
Hell, who can sleep in this heat this night?

Both ends burning, burning, burn
Both ends burning, burning, burn

Tell me will I ever learn? it's too late, the rush is on
Both ends burning and I can't control
The fire's raging in my soul tonight
Oh will it ever end?
Put your foot down around the bend
Drive me crazy to an early grave
Tell me what is there to save tonight?

Both ends burning, burning, burn
Keep on burning till the end, until the end
Both ends burning till the end, until the end
Keep on burning till the end, until the end
Both ends burning till the end, the very end
