Burn It At Both Ends

I don't want one single night
Coming back to haunt me
I can't let them baby blues
Come back 'round to taunt me

Your leaving left me hurting
Girl, I'm tired of kicking, cursing
So I'm doing me a goodbye burning
Goodbye burning

'Cause I want everything about you
Going up in smoke
I'm gonna douse it down in whiskey
So it ain't burning slow
Tonight, I'm lighting up your memory
Like it's love's last cigarette
From our first love to seeing you with him
I'm gonna burn it at both ends

Now, I know there's some good ones
Living in the middle
But I don't wanna miss 'em
Not even just a little

From echoes of your laughing
To the click of your suitcase latching
I'm gonna leave 'em all in ashes
All in ashes

'Cause I want everything about you
Going up in smoke
I'm gonna douse it down in whiskey
So it ain't burning slow
Tonight, I'm lighting up your memory
Like it's love's last cigarette
From our first love to seeing you with him
I'm gonna burn it at both ends

I want everything about you
Going up in smoke
I'm gonna douse it down in whiskey
So it ain't burning slow
Tonight, I'm lighting up your memory
Like it's love's last cigarette
From our first love to seeing you with him
So there ain't no way you're hurting me again
I'm gonna burn it at both, burn it both
Burn it at both ends, at both ends
