Don't Mind Me, I'm Only Dying Slow
Out from my window, the people are passing on by I hear them complain but I know that they don't even try And the lights down on Main Street don't shine like they used to And I'm thinking of nothing but spending a lifetime with you You know that I love you, you know that I wait by your door You know how I'm feeling, so I won't have to feel it no more But nobody could ever love you like I can Honey someday you'll wake up and maybe you'll understand Now I got a friend of a friend who drives a nice car And I got acquaintances down at the neighborhood bar And I got some women; they stop on by my home But somehow I always wake up each morning alone And the train that I ride has nothing aside From the Phantom Conductor with a dog at his side And the ghost of a weeping, weddingless bride Who should have been married but never arrived And I see through the windows like I see through the lies Like I see through every useless disguise that Everyone wears but everyone swears that they don't Ah but don't mind me baby, I'm only dying slow I'm trying so hard just to forget about you I try not to care about anything that you do Letras de cancionesBut four in the morning and I just can't sleep The pills ain't workin and I can't get no relief And I feel like a hound dog moaning along with the rain Any day now, the jukebox could drive me insane There's an old man in the corner that nobody knows He says: “laugh while you can cause someday you'll be wearing my clothes” But I guess I can't tell you what you don't already know And I ain't no prophet, my landlord he told me so But my mind is a burning ring of Saturn Flame... And I feel things inside that I just cant explain I know that you know how to fake and to take what You break what you burn what you never did learn Then you turn and you say that you've made a mistake As your head starts to spin and your heart starts to ache But all that you make will be all that you get When the curtain goes down, but don't you forget That all your regret is a cheap silhouette and that's all... Ah but don't mind me baby, i'm only dying slow I met a gambler who did nothing but lose all day He had love in his hands but he let her slip away And all he ever wanted was to give her a win But all she ever really wanted was him From Letras Mania
