Pikes - Singing About a Love While the World is on Fire Lyrics

I tried to hide my time away
Stayed at home through out my days
Thought I was fine til someone told me

Said that you've found another one
I feel the longing in my bones
Stuck in your world I can't go on

I'm just singing bout a love
While the world is on fire

I tried distractions of all kinds
They all reminded me of the time
When I was yours and you were mine

But now that you've found another one
Nothing's appealing, nothing's fun
Can't feel a feeling since you left me

I'm just singing bout a love
While the world is on fire

No I'm not singing about a cold, bitter, unwanted love
No I mean the one we had when we were young
Staying up all night listening to supertramp
And smoking
With our eyes facing the stars above
