Gaslight Anthem, The - Red In The Morning lyrics

rate me

Let it ride, let it ride, let it roll off your mind.

Don't say a single world, get back inside.

Let me drive, let me drive, disappear in the night,

like I was a ghost in your dreams.

And it was all completely wrong, Virginia.

You were much too much for me.

I was a boy on the lawn, with his eyes to the sky.

You were Garbo, smoke, and deceit.

And it was Saturday, September, and fire.

It was a backdrop set in your smile.

It was all I could want in the sway of the song,

I was haunted for so many years.

Let it ride, let it ride, let it roll off your mind.

Don't say a single world, get back inside.

Let me drive, let me drive, disappear in the night,

like I was a ghost in your dreams.

Say goodbye, say goodbye, give a kiss and a sigh.

Never, never, never bring me back to your mind.

Let me slide, let me slide, roll off your mind,

like I was a movie you'd seen.

And it was all just a crime, Virginia, let your fire be mercy to me.

I was a boy in your arms, safe in your arms,

and you swore like a promise to me.

That I would never, never, never leave your heart.

No I would never, never, never leave your heart.

But where are you now, I can still feel you now,

and I hear all your songs in the breeze.
