great expectations ('59 sound sessions) - the gaslight anthem lyrics
[verse 1]
mary, this station is playing every sad song
i remember from when we were alive
i heard and sung them all from inside of these walls
in this prison cell, where we spent those nights
and they burned up the diner where i always used to find her
l!cking young boys’ blood from her claws
and i learned about the blues from this kitten i knew
her hair was raven and her heart was like a tomb
and my heart’s like a wound
[chorus]
i saw tail lights last night in a dream about my first wife
everybody leaves and i expected as much from you
i saw tail lights last night in a dream about my old life
woke with my head unreasonably blue
[verse 2]
mary, i worried and stalled every night of my life
better safe than making the party
and i never had a good time
i sat by my bedside with papers and poetry about estella
with great expectations
[chorus]
i saw tail lights last night in a dream about my first wife
everybody leaves and i expected as much from you
i saw tail lights last night in a dream about my old life
woke with my head unreasonably blue
unreasonable to you
[bridge]
it’s funny how the night moves
humming a song from 1962
[chorus]
i saw tail lights last night in a dream about my old life
everybody leaves and i expected as much from you
i saw tail lights last night in a dream about my first wife
everybody leaves and i’d expected as much from you
