Matt Nathanson - Mission Bells lyrics

rate me

[Chorus]

I had a dream you died

And I just wanna be with you tonight

Mission bells were ringing

Somewhere higher

I let you get away

I let you get away

What kind of man misunderstands

A woman like you?

She’s her in black and white

It’s 5 am and the phonebook says

That you’re not alone

In the cold grey morning light

The only one that’s left to trust

My faithless heart wasted us

[Chorus]

I had a dream you died

And I just wanna be with you tonight

Mission bells were ringing

Somewhere higher

I let you get away

I let you get away

What kind of fool thinks love’s a prison

Or a handicap

Only says goodbye

Sinking fast in the rocky waters of alcatraz

His friends said suicide

The only one that’s left to trust

My faithless heart wasted us

[Chorus]

I had a dream you died

And I just wanna be with you tonight

Mission bells were ringing

Somewhere higher

I let you get away

I let you get away

I’m the end of a hitchcock movie

A little dark and a lot confusing

I’m the last of the worst pretenders

So lost, so lost in love

I’m the end of a hitchcock movie

A little dark and a lot confusing

I’m the last of the worst pretenders

So lost, so lost in love

[Chorus]

I had a dream you died

And I just wanna be with you tonight

Mission bells were ringing

Somewhere higher

I let you get away

I let you get away

So lost, so lost, in love

So lost, so lost, in love.
