  Oh, never blow This night away Let me tell you How this song came to play It was cold outside I saw your face Your cheeky smile Blew me away Let me tell you How it came to this Represented by only one kiss I saw your face And you saw mine And that was it We were together for life O...

  Don’t need you any more

  

  By xxLivxx, Preston, United Kingdom

  A funny feeling comes over me Don’t really no what to say to you Whatever I say it makes you mad The eyes I give I didn’t no I had Whatever I think Whether I smile You find a fault in me I smirk a little Laugh a lot This seems to irritate you I don’t get it Don’t know what Iâ€...

  The house is burning
