The Gaslight Anthem - Señor and the Queen lyrics
[The Gaslight Anthem - Señor and the Queen lyrics]
Show me your hands
I wanna know how you dance pretty baby
By the light of the moon
Do you carry your lovers around in a
Heart like a tomb with a view?
I wanna know how you lose, pretty baby
Does it show in your eyes?
Were you born to be a runner
Or are you a casual sigh?
Did the boys at school break
Your precious heart in two?
And in every sad, sad country song
Is there a little bitty piece
Of 'em still hanging on?
You tell me yours and I'll tell you mine
My dear and we'll bury these old ghosts here
Where'd you get those eyes?
What do you see with
Those eyes, pretty darling
In the dead of the night?
Are you saying your prayers or
Are you glowing like
The metal on the edge of the knife?
Baby whose name sounds right on
The lips of my queen?
Am I speaking in riddles
Or do you feel what I mean?
Are you dying to move
Or are you dying to be the one moved?
And would you shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake Señora? If I could make you feel like
He used to make you feel
I'll swing you a song and I'll
Dance you a dance right now
And would you shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake Señora? If I could make you feel like
He used to make you feel
I'll swing you a song and I'll
Dance you a dance right now
And we'll bury these old ghosts down
We'll bury these old ghosts down
Down, down, down down, Darlin', down
Down, down
I wanna know how you dance pretty baby
By the light of the moon
Do you carry your lovers around in a
Heart like a tomb with a view?
I wanna know how you lose, pretty baby
Does it show in your eyes?
Were you born to be a runner
Or are you a casual sigh?
Did the boys at school break
Your precious heart in two?
And in every sad, sad country song
Is there a little bitty piece
Of 'em still hanging on?
You tell me yours and I'll tell you mine
My dear and we'll bury these old ghosts here
Where'd you get those eyes?
What do you see with
Those eyes, pretty darling
In the dead of the night?
Are you saying your prayers or
Are you glowing like
The metal on the edge of the knife?
Baby whose name sounds right on
The lips of my queen?
Am I speaking in riddles
Or do you feel what I mean?
Are you dying to move
Or are you dying to be the one moved?
And would you shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake Señora? If I could make you feel like
He used to make you feel
I'll swing you a song and I'll
Dance you a dance right now
And would you shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake Señora? If I could make you feel like
He used to make you feel
I'll swing you a song and I'll
Dance you a dance right now
And we'll bury these old ghosts down
We'll bury these old ghosts down
Down, down, down down, Darlin', down
Down, down
