lyrics

I'll wait a long time
long as you keep me guessing
it's the summer time
and all the summer time girls are dressing to kill

so I'm headed out nighttimes
only to remember
all the love for you
still burning in its embers

every time, every time

and what about you, what do you do?
whatever it is seems like it's working for you
but I wouldn't know
all I've got's a bad idea

jack and coke
whiskey's sour
pack of smokes
and I pass the hours between me and you

and watching the scene pass by
all the same
dreaming of one last try
to light the flame

from the ash, from the ash

and what about you, what do you do?
whatever it is seems like it's working for you
but I wouldn't know
all I've got's a bad idea
all I've got's a bad idea
