This town I'm in can't take no more Decadance and sin You were my woman Why'd you have to be so hard and cold
(Chorus 1) Paris is burning Want to see it from afar Paris is burning Want to get to where you are
My life's in ruin The girl I love She's far away The distant fire Brings memories of the love That I once knew Where are you now Been looking all around And I can't stay Help me now I can't stay Much more before I fade away
(Chorus 2) Paris is burning I can see it from afar Paris is burning Wanna to where you are
(Solo)
I can't believe You'd throw it all away You know you played me for a fool (huh) I'm leavin' now This time you know That I'll be gone for good, yeah
(Chorus 2) Paris is burning, Paris Paris is burning Paris is burning I can see it from afar Paris is burning Paris (fade out)
