Lyrics |
She sends me blue valentines All the way from philadelphia To mark the anniversary Of someone that i used to be And it feels just like theres A warrant out for my arrest Got me checkin in my rearview mirror And i'm always on the run Thats why i changed my name And i didn't think you'd ever find me here
To send me blue valentines Like half forgotten dreams Like a pebble in my shoe As i walk these streets And the ghost of your memory Is the thistle in the kiss And the burgler that can break a roses neck It's the tatooed broken promise That i hide beneath my sleeve And i see you every time i turn my back
She sends me blue valentines Though i try to remain at large They're insisting that our love Must have a eulogy Why do i save all of this madness In the nightstand drawer There to haunt upon my shoulders Baby i know I'd be luckier to walk around everywhere i go With a blind and broken heart That sleeps beneath my lapel
She sends me my blue valentines To remind me of my cardinal sin I can never wash the guilt Or get these bloodstains off my hands And it takes a lot of whiskey To take this nightmares go away And i cut my bleedin heart out every nite And i die a little more on each st. valentines day Remember that i promised i would Write you... These blue valentines Blue valentines Blue valentines
