THE ARCADE FIRE - VIRGIN MARY HIGHWAY lyrics

rate me

I lay on my back in the lake at night in the summer time trying to remember

Every last second, every last breath that I spent with you

The yellow dotted line, reflected in your eyes

You scream as the crickets fly in the open window

Please don't cry love

Come on babe, we both know that I'll stay

The Virgin Mary lives beside the highway

Let's go and see her today

We've both felt love before even if we deny it

That familiar feeling of believing that we'll die without it

Be we never do, well not completely

Come on babe, we both know that I'll stay

The Virgin Mary lives beside the highway

Let's go and see her lets ask her blessing today

Bless us

Bless us
