His Lamest Flame (Album Version) - Mary Lou Lord

作词：N Saloman/M L Lord

作曲：N Saloman/M L Lord

The knees are bent and the hands are clasped

The painted head is bowed

A sudden glimpse through Heaven's gate

Is all that I'm allowed

My hair is black and eyes are green

But Marie is not my name

His lamest flame

His lamest flame will be

Too brief and burn too pale

And all attempts to fire it up again will fail

I run around behind his friends

And play the waiting game

His lamest flame

I tell myself a million times

There's nothing I can do

So why do I keep holding on

I only wish I knew

I was born too weak and I feel like a fool

But it's out of my domain

His lamest flame

His lamest flame will die

Before the night is out

Just a heap of ash

The wind has blown about

For him these feelings fade away

But for me they're still the same

His lamest flame

His lamest flame is here

And flickering its last

And through the dying light

We journey to the past

But still I'd give up all I've got

To have him back again

His lamest flame

His lamest flame

His lamest flame
