If I could write, |
|
I'd tell you how much I've missed these nights |
|
Where we'd dig around the bones |
|
And try to find peace and patches for the holes |
|
I lit a cigarette on a parking meter |
|
The corner boys told her how I was dyin' to meet her |
|
Like a prayer I said on a dead man's knee |
|
You drove up like a parade |
|
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos, |
|
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof |
|
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars |
|
While you just kept coming apart |
|
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos, |
|
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof |
|
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars |
|
While you just kept coming apart straight in my arms |
|
Fell straight in my arms |
|
And I miss it sometimes |
|
Shakin' like a leaf on the corner of Vine |
|
But I heard it's alright |
|
The radio spoke to a good friend of mine |
|
And I can feel it comin' up as the night's gettin' warm |
|
I saw your summer dress hangin' on the back of the lawn |
|
Like a dream I remember from an easier time |
|
With the top rolled down on a Saturday night |
|
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos |
|
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof |
|
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars |
|
While you just kept coming apart |
|
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos |
|
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof |
|
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars |
|
While you just kept coming apart right in my arms |
|
Right in my arms |
|
And I always dreamed of classic cars and movie screens |
|
And tryin' to find some way to be redeemed |
|
Bring a dollar with you, baby |
|
In the cold, cold ground |
|
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos |
|
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof |
|
Of the sky up above these indifferent stars |
|
While you just kept coming apart |
|
You and your high-top sneakers and your sailor tattoos |
|
And your old '55 that you drove through the roof |
|
Of the sky up above, these indifferent stars |
|
While you just kept coming apart, you fell straight in my arms. |
|
You fell straight in my arms. |
