[Intro][Verse 1]Oh babe, meet me in Tompkins Square ParkI wanna hold you in the darkOne last timeJust one last timeAnd oh babe, can you tell what’s on my tongue?Can you guess that I’ll be gone with the twilight?With the twilight[Chorus]But no flame burns forever, oh noYou and I both know this all too wellAnd most don't even last the nightNo, they don't, they say they don't[Verse 2]Oh babe, I've never been so lostI wanna hear you lieOne last timeJust one last timeBut oh, babe, I really wish you would not cryI only ever told you one lieWhen it could have been a thousandIt might as well have been a thousand[Chorus 2]But no flame burns forever, oh noYou and I both know this all too wellAnd most don't even last the nightNo, they don't, they say they don'tAnd we can talk it 'round again, girl'Round and 'round, 'round and 'round againOr we could leave it out tonightLeave it out, just leave it out[Bridge]I never tried to trick you, babeI just tried to work it outBut I was swallowed up by doubtIf only things were black and white'Cause I just wanna hold you tightWithout holding back my mindWithout holding back my mind[Guitar Solo][Chorus 1]But no flame burns forever, oh noYou and I both know this all too wellAnd most don't even last the nightNo, they don't, they say they don't[Outro]
