my favorite: burning hearts

featured on: my favorite: the happiest days of our lives

we met first in cafes
and later in ruins
my best friend and I
are saying goodbye to Hiroshima

we walked down the tarmac
again gray on gray
my sweetheart and I
are saying goodbye in Hiroshima

i was an architect, she was an actress
i drew the Eiffel Tower upon her dress
so we could see the world

the flash burnt our shadows right into the wall
but my best friend and I
will leave them behind in Hiroshima
i will keep her secrets
i will change my name
my sweetheart and I
are saying goodbye to Hiroshima

i was an architect, she was an actress
i drew the Eiffel Tower upon her dress
so we could see the world

the songs we sung and then forgot
the hearts that would burn and the hearts that would not
and the saint in tower, died for her sins not ours
all of this snow just made us glow in the dark, la la la la
from the boy in the bubble, to a whore in the rubble
all of this snow just made us glow in the dark, la la la la
all of this snow just made us glow in the dark...
