Tom Waits - Blue Valentines Lyrics

Send "Blue Valentines" ringtone to your cell

She sends me blue valentines

All the way from Philadelphia

To mark the anniversary

Of someone that I used to be

And it feels just like there's

A warrant out for my arrest

Got me checkin in my rearview mirror

And I'm always on the run

That's why I changed my name

And I didn't think you'd ever find me here

To send me blue valentines

Like half forgotten dreams

Like a pebble in my shoe

As I walk these streets

And the ghost of your memory

Is the thistle in the kiss

And the burgler that can break a roses neck

It's the tatooed broken promise

That I hide beneath my sleeve

And I see you every time I turn my back

She sends me blue valentines

Though I try to remain at large

They're insisting that our love

Must have a eulogy

Why do I save all of this madness

In the nightstand drawer

There to haunt upon my shoulders

Baby I know

I'd be luckier to walk around everywhere I go

With a blind and broken heart

That sleeps beneath my lapel

She sends me my blue valentines

To remind me of my cardinal sin

I can never wash the guilt

Or get these bloodstains off my hands

And it takes a lot of whiskey

To take this nightmares go away

And I cut my bleedin heart out every nite

And I die a little more on each St. Valentines day

Remember that I promised I would

Write you...

These blue valentines

Blue valentines

Blue valentines
