Ashes By Now

This morning is Monday, where are you now?
Teasin' my memory, teachin' me how
To lay low when I don't want to
Your love is elusive, this I know now
It's making me crazy, leaving me out
In the open when I don't want to
The moments of pleasures never do last
They're gone like a suitcase full of your past
Long gone, and in a hurry

Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down
More than I've already been
Just like a wild fire
You're running all over town
As much as you burn me, baby
I should be ashes by now

The second street beggars, alone in their life
Drunk on a sidewalk to hide from the night
Like I am, they're just like I am

Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down
More than I've already been
Just like a wild fire
You're running all over town
As much as you burn me, baby
I should be ashes by now


Baby, I can't go through this again
I don't need to go down
More than I've already been
Just like a wild fire
You're running all over town
As much as you burn me, baby
I should be ashes by now
As much as you burn me, baby
I should be ashes by now
