letra de watching a good thing burn - vance gilbert

[verse 1]
she never gave a reason
said she didn’t need one
’cause the wind don’t follow street signs
or traffic lights
my misunderstanding
i whispered to the window
watching her get smaller
in the crowds passing by

[pre-chorus]
it’s like waking up at christmas
in the land of broken toys
to have the pieces swept unto my feet
for consolation

[chorus]
and there’s nothing can be said
and there’s nothing can be done
i’m like a helpless child in the front yard
of a house on fire
watching a good thing burn

[verse 2]
now there’s little parts of broken hеarts
and promises, like taillight glass
all scatterеd over lover’s lane
this morning
but heads will spin like satellites
with every first kiss here tonight
and there’s nothing quite like going
back in time to heed a warning
[pre-chorus]
when the streetlights drown the stars out
and the moon turns her back
and the neon letters fl!cker in the windows
like they’re laughing

[chorus]
but there’s nothing can be said
and there’s nothing can be done
i’m like a helpless child in the front yard
of a house on fire
watching a good thing burn
watch it burn!

[verse 3]
now i join those passing by
but don’t ask me to step in time
’cause the song is wrong it leaves behind
a ringing in my chest
now my heart’s a car alarm
shattered windows music gone
howling through the whole night long
nothing left for dancing

[pre-chorus]
when i turn for comfort to my friends
i see it written on each face
all the frantic searching for the proper words
and phrases
[chorus]
but there’s nothing can be said
and there’s nothing can be done
i’m like a helpless child in the front yard
of a house on fire
watching a good thing burn

[chorus]
and there’s nothing can be said
nothing can be done
i’m like a fire fighter
and i’m dressed to k!ll
but i’m standing still
watching a good thing burn
