Lyrics
Don't stand so close to me Don't be another tragedy I've burned everybody who had a hand to lend A man burning at both ends No one put me in this hell I lit a fire underneath myself Now I'm blazing the same old trail back to you again A man burning at both ends A dangerous thing to know about No painless way to put me out You either make a bed that's cold Or you're walking barefoot over coals I regret the things I've done Bitter words and fiery tongues And letters burned to smoke and then turned to wind A man burning at both ends A dangerous thing to know about No painless way to put me out You either make a bed that's cold Or you're walking barefoot over coals We ran barefoot through the reeds Wetted down and with the need The tide though high and getting higher Could not put out the man on fire Look look look look look down your street for me Look look look look look up your the window please You'll see a light where before no light had been A man burning at both ends
