Robert Plant Lyrics

"Burning Down One Side" lyrics



Slipped through the window by the back door
Caught short in transit with my love
Jumped up - fell back, cut off from romance
How could I fall without a shove

Tip-toe like thunder on my feeling
You rock me gently with your sighs
My knees are weak - my head is reeling
Consumed by fire in your eyes

Stepped in and shattered my defences
Just playing hookey with my heart
Slipped through the window by the back door
And took the keys to my poor heart - yes, my poor heart

Try as I might - try as I may
Yes, I'll try anything to make you stay
'Cause I need your love - yes, I need your love --

I'm looking high - I'm looking low
Can't find where did my baby go
Gotta find out why she ran away
I don't know where did my baby stay

Try as I might - try as I may
I'll try anything to make you stay

Fire down the Boulevard d'Amour
Shoot through the neon in the night
Hot-foot through alleys - check the doorways
Try that old parking lot on Ninth

There's three-course kissing in the same place
But that don't help me out no more
I've been away so long and dreaming
