Letra de
Slow Dancing In A Burning Room

A música Slow Dancing in a Burning Room foi escrita por John Mayer e é frequentemente interpretada como uma metáfora para um relacionamento que está falhando onde os envolvidos continuam a se agarrar, apesar de saberem que está condenado. John Mayer não detalhou especificamente os eventos ou o relacionamento que inspiraram a música, mas ela é amplamente admirada por sua lírica emotiva e complexidade musical.

It's not a silly little moment
It's not the storm before the calm
This is the deep and dying breath of
This love that we've been working on
Can't seem to hold you like I want to
So I can feel you in my arms
Nobody's gonna come and save you
We've pulled too many false alarms

We're going down
And you can see it too
We're going down
And you know that we're doomed
My Dear we're slow dancing in a burning room

I was the one you always dreamed of
You were the one I tried to draw
How dare you say it's nothing to me
Baby you're the only light I ever saw
I'll make the most of all the sadness
You'll be a bitch because you can
You try to hit me just to hurt me so you leave me feeling dirty
Because you can't understand

We're going down
And you can see it too
We're going down
And you know that we're doomed
My Dear we're slow dancing in a burning room


Go Cry about it why don't you (repeat 3 times)
My Dear we're slow dancing in a burning room


Don't you think we outta know by now
Don't you think we should've learned somehow
Don't you think we outta know by now
Don't you think we should've learned somehow
Don't you think we outta know by now
Don't you think we should've learned somehow
