The Gaslight Anthem - Have Mercy lyrics
Your rating:
[Verse:] Come pick me up from the night From the hands of the dark From the things I didn't know That would simply break your heart There were years in this room Lined and shattered in the glass Held it up to myself till I just couldn't stand [Chorus:] So don't ask me where I've been cause you don't want to know And don't ask me who I'm seeing, no, you don't want to know And don't come around me here when I need you the most Leave it alone, leave a little room for the holy ghost [Verse 2:] And come take me out of the light I don't feel you anymore I came apart from myself And from the crosses you wore And the things in my soul Once my comforting friend I came to the reasons And I lost you again [Chorus:] So don't ask me where I've been cause you don't want to know And don't ask me who I'm seeing, no, you don't want to know And don't come around me here when I need you the most Leave it alone, leave a little room for the holy ghost (Bridge x4) Now your pretty horses run wild and free You can go and find a lover, baby, better than me Talking slow for days with your friends in L. A. Have mercy
