“Burning House” is the second single from Cam (Country)’s Welcome To Cam Country EP. The haunting yet organic track uses the imagery of a house fire as a metaphor for a dying relationship.
Cam performed a verse and a chorus from “Burning House” on widely-syndicated country radio program The Bobby Bones Show on June 10, 2015, resulting in positive listener reaction and a large increase in sales on iTunes. The next day, the song was officially selected as the EP’s second single.
"Burning House" lyrics
I had a dream about a burning house
You were stuck inside
I couldn't get you out
Laid beside you and pulled you close
And the two of us went up in smoke
Love isn't all that it seems I did you wrong
I'll stay here with you until this dream is gone
I've been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Trying to take what's lost and broke and
Make it right
I've been sleepwalking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house
See you at a party and you look the same
I could take you back
But people don't ever change
Wish that we could go back in time
I'd be the one you thought you'd find
Love isn't all that it seems I did you wrong
I'll stay here with you until this dream is gone
I've been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Trying to take what's lost and broke and
Make it right
I've been sleepwalking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house
The flames are getting bigger now
In this burning house
I can hold on to you somehow
In this burning house
Oh when I don't want to wake up
In this burning house
I've been sleepwalking
Been wandering all night
Trying to take what's lost and broke and
Make it right
I've been sleepwalking
Too close to the fire
But it's the only place that I can hold you tight
In this burning house
