Darling it's so dark in this houseExcept for this light, my slow candle burning.I know you're somewhere,I always did feel it.I got a new songYou might never hear.Goodnight Irene,I got your trouble,I read your letters,You sent like a bomb.And when you're gone,We're all gonna miss you,you're perfume like cigarettes and the sea.My name that you always wore like grief.Goodnight Irene.I grew up kind of lonesome, the saint of the sinnersThe voice of the dogs, you find in the rainSo I just keep working, I'll just keep drivingNobody writes the blues anymoreGoodnight Irene,I got your trouble and I read your lettersYou sent like a bomb.And when you're goneSongtexteWe're all gonna miss you,you're perfume like cigarettes and the sea.My name that you always wore like grief.And in my mind there is a dream where the telephone rangJust before the ring took a vow and bend in her hand In her closet where white dresses hang Where eyes declaring war, Goodnight Irene.
