Jimmy wanted her the moment that she stumbled his way
With a cocktail in her hand, she knew how she'd win the game
There were beautiful in all the right places
She keeps her rendezvous with soap opera faces
She started rumors that were driving him crazy
He couldn't stop the things they'd say
And they live for passion, love and pain
In a rage of jealousy and fame
And they watch their dreams go up on flames
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Whoa ... burnin'...
In the kingdom of pretenders love is not what it seems
Jimmy cried and then he punished her
No one heard her scream
On the outside, it's all crimson and clover
On the inside, they know that it's over
And the band of lawyers that steal the show
As they watch their world go up in smoke
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Whoa ... burnin'... burnin'... burnin'... burnin'...
(Spoken words)
When we return a story of a 5 alarm fire late last night in the prestigious Hollywood Hills
where one of the most controversial marriages in the entertainment industry went up in smoke,
arson is suspected. It is still under investigation...
You know I love you, you know you're my girl,
I'd never hurt you... no
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Castles burning... in the dead of night
Burnin'... burnin'
All is fair in love and war, but war is hell...
In the heart of the night, in the middle of the big bad city
This song of the week can be heard on Trial By Fire.
"There are solid rockers, thoughtful ballads and rock anthems which Journey has done so well in the past. But this album by no means is a rehash of old Journey sounds and themes. Ten years is a long time to work on music and get it right, and although I know this project wasn't worked upon in that span of time, it is evident the band has grown up a bit while growing closer to one another. Sheer maturity and an uncanny sense of virility is evident here." - RockNet
