Gaslight Anthem (The)

Blue Dahlia
What a hot and sultry summer Steam just slides up off them streets You gotta stay inside and wait for the night And then come on over and see me An´ there´s a poetry about these streets It just slips from your skin and goes right underneath And mum always knew I´d meet a girl like you But me, I never believed ´Cause I´ve been so lonely I can´t imagine that kind of sympathy ´Cause I´ve been so lonely I can´t imagine that kind of sympathy Where´d you get them scars? I´m blue as your heart! Is it said enough to break? She said "It´s said enough to break!" How long was your life? Was it could and strange like mine? Are you man enough to lay here? She said "I´m man enough my baby, come see about me!" I had a dream about you once And I could barely see your form And I met you between the wax and the needle SongtexteIn the words of my favorite song And your black hair was like a raven With your tan skin on the beach An´ your backdrop were the auroras And my sidekick was all this grief And I´ve been so low down, I´m almost level with the ground Where´d you get them scars? I´m blue as your heart! Is it said enough to break? She said "It´s said enough to break!" How long was your life? Was it could and strange like mine? Are you man enough to lay here? She said "I´m man enough my baby, come see about me!" Did they take you to the carnival To get locked up on a ride Me, I got caught up with the fortune tellers An´ ladies with the sleepy eyes It took years my baby just to come clean Every streetlight a reminder And all those apologies And the night was lonely next to me Even the night was lonely next to me Where´d you get them scars? I´m blue as your heart! Is it said enough to break? She said "It´s said enough to break!" How long was your life? Was it could and strange like mine? Are you man enough to lay here? She said "I´m man enough my baby, come see about me!" Come see about me, ah-ah! Come see about me! Come see about me! Come see about me, ah-ah! Come see about me, ah-ah! Whenever you´re lonely!
