Blue Dahlia

On a hot self tree summer, steam just lies above them trees
You gotta stay inside and wait for the night and then come on over to see me
And there's a poetry about these streets and skips through the skin, goes right underneath
And momma always knew I need a girl like you, to me I never believed

'Cause I've been so lonely, I can't imagine not come and stay with me
'Cause I've been so lonely, I can't imagine not come and stay with me
Where did you get them scars? How blue is your heart?
Is it sad enough to break? She said it's sad enough to break
How long was your life?
Was it cold and strange like mine? Are you man enough to lay here?
She said I'm man enough, my baby, come see about me

Had a dream about you once, I can barely see your form
And I met you between the wax and the needle and the words of my favorite song
And your black hair was like a raven to your tanned skin over the beach
And your back drop with your rollers and my side kick was all discrete

And I've been so locked down, I've been long lost level on the ground
Where did you get them scars? How blue is your heart?
Is it sad enough to break? She said it's sad enough to break
How long was your life?
Was it cold and strange like mine? Are you man enough to lay here?
She said I'm man enough, my baby, come see about me

Did it take you to the carnival to get locked up on the line?
Me, I got caught up with the fortune tellers and the ladies with the sleepy eyes
It took years, my baby, just to come clean, every street light a reminder
And all those apologies and the night was lonely next to mean
Even the night was lonely next to me

Where did you get them scars? How blue is your heart?
Is it sad enough to break? She said it's sad enough to break
How long was your life?
Was it cold and strange like mine? Are you man enough to lay here?
She said I'm man enough, my baby, come see about me

Come see about me, come see about me, come see about me, come see about me, come see about me
Whenever you're lonely
