Rick Springfield - Honeymoon In Beirut Lyrics
I wake up every night (to the sound)To the sound of breaking glassGot troops in the bedAnd tanks in the hallI kidnapped and held for ransom (the one in me)The one in me that you lovedWe wait for the fallAnd put emotional bullet holes in the wallAnd we both, keep sending signals all is wellWish you were hereHoneymoon in beirutAlthough I keep on sending postcardsFrom heaven (tell me)Why do I stay (I dont know)Honeymoon in beirutAnd we still keep pretendingSixes are sevens (tell me)Why cant we sayThere is no honeymoonThis is no honeymoon, noThis is no honeymoonThere is no honeymoon, noHoneymoon in beirutThere are no peace talks pendingNo quarter given (theres just)Blood on the bed, where there used to be loveStrategy and maneuvers (have replaced)Any love that was hereWe have dinner in silenceAnd bullets with beerI dont know what you want (my defeat)Or complete surrenderOr peace in our timeWhile in bed we draw the battle lineAnd we sit, out in the rainWriting cards to friends back homeThe weather is fineHoneymoon in beirutAlthough I keep on sending postcardsFrom heaven (tell me)Why do I stay (I dont know)Honeymoon in beirutAnd we still keep pretendingSixes are sevens (tell me)Why cant we sayThere is no honeymoonThis is no honeymoon, noThis is no honeymoonThere is no honeymoon, noAnd we stand out in the rainSmiling as we sink like a stoneAnd hope for the end (whatever it is)Honeymoon in beirutAlthough I keep on sending postcardsFrom heaven (tell me)Why do I stay (I dont know)Honeymoon in beirutAnd we still keep pretendingSixes are sevens (tell me)Why cant we sayThere is no honeymoonThis is no honeymoon, noThis is no honeymoonThere is no honeymoon, no
