Slow Dancing in a Burning Room - John Mayer

It's not a silly little moment,
It's not the storm before the calm.
This is the deep and dying breath of,
This love that we've been working on.

Can't seem to hold you like I want to,
So I can feel you in my arms.
Nobody's gonna come and save you,
We pulled too many false alarms.

We're going down and you can see it too.
We're going down and you know that we're doomed.
My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room.

I was the one you always dreamed of,
You were the one I tried to draw.
How dare you say it's nothing to me,
Baby you're the only light that I ever saw.

I make the most of all the saddness.
You'll be a bitch because you can.
You try to hit me just to hurt me,
So you leave me feeling dirty cause you can't understand.

We're going down
And you can see it too
We're going down
And you know that we're doomed.

My dear, we're slowing dancing in a burning room.

Go cry about it
why don't you?

Go cry about it
why don't you?

Go cry about it
why don't you?

My dear, we're slow dancing in a burning room.

Don't you think we ought to know by now
Don't you think we should've learned somehow?
