The Gaslight Anthem - 1930 lyrics

Give me mercy and a minute now,

I'm a bleed a little poison out,

I'm a cry a little river down

And then I'm setting this whole thing on fire,

And I'm burning up the night she died

And I'm putting every last picture aside

I'm gonna say what I need to say,

In my very last letter to you,

Cuz you always made it clear,

Said that you'd never be my pain.

So here's to you when you cried baby blues

And just paused a cool to refrain

And you said she was satisfied

And now this body's just waiting to die

And I could listen sometimes

But you said it's alright

It's just a whole lot harder alone.

But I wish you knew her now,

She's a better side of me now,

And I'm doing the best I can,

It's what you wanted,

And I sing like you were there

And I knew it was just how you would smile

Mary you looked just like

It was 1930 that night.

But hear the nights they will eat you alive,

But I won't give in tonight, The Gaslight Anthem - 1930 - http://motolyrics.com/the-gaslight-anthem/1930-lyrics.html

You said it's not worth my time

And not to record them,

And not to settle just a piece of mind

But I can wait it out all night,

And we keep on breathing [sigh]

But Mary I found a sound

And this heart keeps pouring it out

And the glory has come,

But it's probably gonna fade like the tattoo

That hides this shame and the reasons always fade

And the pain gets out some day

And I'm saying my goodbyes deeply wise

Cuz I don't know how to say

Stay still in the pain

But I wish you knew her now,

She's a better side of me now,

And I'm doing the best I can,

It's what you wanted,

And I sing like you were there

And I knew it was just how you smile

Mary you looked just like

It was 1930 that night

If I recall the last thing you said to me,

Before we broke up, before it took you from me,

And you said I love you more than the stars in the sky

But your aliveness just gets me tonight
