Lyrics Dokken – Paris Is Burning

This town I’m in can’t take no more
Decadence is silly
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
Want to see it from afar
Paris is burning
Get back where you are

Solo

I can’t believe
You’d throw it all away
You know you played me for a fool

Chorus 2
Paris is burning, Paris
Paris is burning
Paris is burning
Want to see it from afar
Paris is burning
Paris
Fade Out
