John Mayer - Slow Dancing In A Burning Room (Acoustic)

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 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 going to come and save you 
We pulled too many false alarms 

We’re going down and you can see it, too 
We’re going down, 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 I think I ever saw 

I’ll make the most of all the sadness 
You’ll be a bitch because you can 
You try to hit me just to hurt me 
Then you leave me feeling dirty 
Because you can’t understand 

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

Go cry about it, why don’t you? 
Go cry about it, why don’t you? 
Oh, go cry about it, go cry about it 
My dear, we’re slow dancing in a burning room
In a burning room, in a burning room 

Don’t you think we ought to know by now? 
Don’t you think we should have learned somehow? 
Don’t you think we ought to know by now?  
Don’t you think we should have learned somehow?
