A Martyr For My Love For You LyricsArtist: The White StripesAlbum: Icky Thump She was sixteen And six feet tall In a crowd of teenagers Coming out of the zoo. She stumbled Started to slip and fall Teeter tottered on the top Of patent leather shoes. I happen to catch her and said "maybe these ruby shoes are A little cumbersome for you." Maybe for you, now. But not as shaky As I must've seemed Talking junk through her Giggle little teenage dream. And on the phone I could not compete My dumb luck Fake confidence Was getting weak. And for a sec I thought I sounded sweet But sure enough In a gruff voice I heard myself speak... I could stay awhile But sooner or later I'll break your smile And I can tell a joke But one of these days I'm bound to choke And we might share a kiss But I feel like I can't go Through with this And I bet we could build a home But I know the right thing For me to do Is to leave you alone I'm beginning to like you So you probably won't get What I'm going to do. I'm walking away from you It probably don't make No sense to you. But I'm trying to save you From all of the things that I'll probably say or do. I'll probably do, now. I could stay awhile But sooner or later I'll break your smile And I can tell a joke But one of these days I'm bound to choke And we might share a kiss But I feel like I can't go Through with this And I bet we could build a home But I know the right thing For me to do Is to leave you alone You'll probably call me a fool And say I'm doing exactly What a coward would do. And I'm beginning to like you It's a shame What a lame way to live But what can i do? Well I hope you appreciate What I do... I'm a martyr for my love for you. Related: |
