American Aquarium - Savannah Almost Killed Me lyrics
[American Aquarium - Savannah Almost Killed Me lyrics]
Well Savannah almost killed me
With cheap beer and Irish whiskey
Singing songs loud and out of tune
She was a Bette Davis double
With diamonds on her knuckles
She knew every word to Born to Run
She was talking to some dead end
I said it looks like you could use a friend
Besides, this bar ain't a place
For a girl like you
So we set off into the streetlights
Two kids on a summer weeknight
Skipping rocks and howling at the moon
So let's waste away tonight
Let's drink it down so fast
If only I could've found a way
To make these moments last
She took hold of this shipwrecked heart
Now I'm fallin' again, I'm fallin' apart
We spent the better part of the evening
Stumbling through these streets and
Praying to god we found our way back home
And when the key hit the front door
There was a trail of clothes
On the bedroom floor
You were falling asleep
You looked up and said
"Let's waste away tonight
Let's drink it down so fast"
If only I could've found a way
To make these moments last
You took hold of this shipwrecked heart
Now I'm fallin' again, I'm fallin' apart
Somebody tell Georgia I'm leaving
Tell her she's always on my mind
Somebody tell George everything's
Gonna be alright
Somebody tell Georgia goodbye goodbye
Tell her goodbye tell her goodnight
Tell her goodbye
With cheap beer and Irish whiskey
Singing songs loud and out of tune
She was a Bette Davis double
With diamonds on her knuckles
She knew every word to Born to Run
She was talking to some dead end
I said it looks like you could use a friend
Besides, this bar ain't a place
For a girl like you
So we set off into the streetlights
Two kids on a summer weeknight
Skipping rocks and howling at the moon
So let's waste away tonight
Let's drink it down so fast
If only I could've found a way
To make these moments last
She took hold of this shipwrecked heart
Now I'm fallin' again, I'm fallin' apart
We spent the better part of the evening
Stumbling through these streets and
Praying to god we found our way back home
And when the key hit the front door
There was a trail of clothes
On the bedroom floor
You were falling asleep
You looked up and said
"Let's waste away tonight
Let's drink it down so fast"
If only I could've found a way
To make these moments last
You took hold of this shipwrecked heart
Now I'm fallin' again, I'm fallin' apart
Somebody tell Georgia I'm leaving
Tell her she's always on my mind
Somebody tell George everything's
Gonna be alright
Somebody tell Georgia goodbye goodbye
Tell her goodbye tell her goodnight
Tell her goodbye
