rupert holmes - you burned yourself out lyrics
when you were 15, my love
you put your head through h-ll:
your body was clean, sweet love
but oh, your life was far from being well
when you were 16, my love
you’d come to be quite wise:
so much had you seen, sweet love
your face went deathly pale with hollow eyes
you burned yourself out, you burned yourself out
you did yourself in, and then
from all of the noise, the pills, and the boys
you burned yourself out again
and then you turned 17
i took you, like a game
but others had known you well
and taught you every move that i could name
so then you gave up on love
and lived off ups and downs
the strangers would pick you up
and take you in the back to other towns
you burned yourself out, you burned yourself out
and wound up in idaho
you married a cop, the babies don’t stop
there’s no further out to go
you burned yourself out, you burned yourself out
you did yourself in, and then
from all that you blamed, you flared up and flamed
and burned yourself out again
you burned yourself out
