Molly and the Zombies - Long drives
Side project by Brian Fallon of The Gaslight anthem
Lyrics:
Listen to me
I know I never got much relief
I limped when I walked
S-s-stuttered to talk
and the achin' was just part of me
listen to me
I know all about agony
when you say that it hurts
more than anybody sees
with a heart colder than
the heart off-beat
'cause you married a man who lied to you love
But it wasn't like that when he first picked you up.
When he drove you around and he bought you some flowers
Until something had changed and the temperature soured
But I'm alright
Baby I don't mind
I'll get on just fine
On them long long drives
Call it a lie
Well whatever brings you back to life
We could turn it around we can drive it straight home
If you wanna be alone for the night
Whatever song you like
From The Souls to Mack the Knife
(here we go, here we go, here we go)
we could turn it up loud
we can put the pedal down
With the rain beading up my love
'Cause you ache for a drug that'll never be enough
You're never gonna feel like when he first picked you up
when he drove you around, bought you powder and flowers
until the thrill was gone
but you said
I'm alright
baby I don't mind
I'll get on just fine
on them long long drives
last night I remembered being 17
I met a girl with a taste for the world and whiskey and rites of spring
spent every night with cassettes that she liked
in a car that I borrowed a lot.
and I could never get her to believe.
'Cause we tasted a kiss that was sent from below
it was cool in the night I was old as a stone
in the back of the car with a child at heart
who suddenly showed you their teeth
but you said
I'm alright
Jamie, I don't mind
I'll get on just fine
On them long long drives without you
drives without you
And I still see him sometimes
and he doesn't look right
you left me for him
then you left him for spite
I hope you never pay that price
Wherever you are tonight
