Paolo Nutini - Afterneath lyrics
[Paolo Nutini - Afterneath lyrics]
Babe, babe
You know, baby
Ooh
Mm
Baby, baby
You know
What I want
Baby, baby, baby
Amid the chaos of that day
When all I could hear was
The thunder of gunshots
And all I could smell was
The violence in the air
I look back and I'm amazed
That my thoughts were so clear and true
That three words went through
My mind endlessly
Repeating themselves, like a broken record
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
I got your call on a red telephone
I was laid out still beside the ashtray
Trying to save a memory of you
And me in a better time
When suddenly our madness was there for
All the world to see
Carnage in good night despair
A deep dive into an open mind
On the lost highway of the caustic night
When we held each other's hand
And then afterneath the neon motel light
You said:
"Let's knock 'em all down"
So I kissed your lips
As you took me in the violence thinking
This will be the end
This will be the end
This will be the end
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You know, baby
Ooh
Mm
Baby, baby
You know
What I want
Baby, baby, baby
Amid the chaos of that day
When all I could hear was
The thunder of gunshots
And all I could smell was
The violence in the air
I look back and I'm amazed
That my thoughts were so clear and true
That three words went through
My mind endlessly
Repeating themselves, like a broken record
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
I got your call on a red telephone
I was laid out still beside the ashtray
Trying to save a memory of you
And me in a better time
When suddenly our madness was there for
All the world to see
Carnage in good night despair
A deep dive into an open mind
On the lost highway of the caustic night
When we held each other's hand
And then afterneath the neon motel light
You said:
"Let's knock 'em all down"
So I kissed your lips
As you took me in the violence thinking
This will be the end
This will be the end
This will be the end
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
You're so cool
