STROKE 9 LYRICS - Make It Last

"Make It Last"



The fire flickers out, making movies on her skin

And in the embers she remembers all the places that she’s been

Four letter words fly from her mouth

She thinks she’s breaking ground

Time takes it toll, she feels his soul

And everything around and I say



The way that you feel now

It’s cool as long as I know

The way it’s gonna be



Make it last for an hour

We’ll never feel this way again

Make it all that you want

And everything that I need



The booze reaches her blood

She forgets his name

The wood has turned to cold

But our desire feeds the flame

Will we surrender to the night?

Or will our conscience win the fight?

She won’t regress, but can’t confess

That everything’s alright and I say



The way that you feel now

It’s cool as long as I know

The way it's gonna be

It’s gonna take more

Where we gonna go…



Make it last for an hour

We’ll never feel this way again

Make it all that you want

And everything that I need

Make it last make it last 'cause you're not making me

Any promises, make it last

Make the best of what you see



You give to me what I need to see,

You can’t feed my imagination

You give to me what I need to see, it’s a twisted fascination

It feels so good to make it through the cold

But you know that he’ll

Close all the doors just close ‘em all

For the rest of time
