This morning is Monday where are you now

Teasin' my memory teaching me how to lay low

When I don't want to

Well 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

Are 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 then 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 then 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

Just like a wild fire You're running all over town

As much as you burn me, baby I should be ashes by now

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah I should be ashes by now
