She sends me, blue valentines

all the way from Philadelphia

To mark the anniversary,

of someone that I used to be
all the way from Philadelphia

To mark the anniversary,

of someone that I used to be
To mark the anniversary,

of someone that I used to be
And it feels like a warrant

is out for my arrest

Baby you got me checkin

in my rearview mirror
in my rearview mirror
Thats why I'm always on the run

it's why I changed my name

And I didn't think you'd

ever find me here
it's why I changed my name

And I didn't think you'd

ever find me here
And I didn't think you'd

ever find me here
To send me, blue valentines

like halfforgotten dreams

Like a pebble in my shoe

as I walk these streets
like halfforgotten dreams

Like a pebble in my shoe

as lwalk these streets
Like a pebble in my shoe

as I walk these streets
And the ghost ofyour memory baby

its the thistle in the kiss
Its the burglar that can

break a rose's neck
Its the burglar that can

break a rose's neck
Its the tatooed broken promise

I gotta hide beneath my sleeve

I'm gonna see you every time

lturn my back
I gotta hide beneath my sleeve

I'm gonna see you every time

lturn my back
INSTRUMENTAL
send me. blue valentines

though ltry to remain at large

They're insisting that our

love must have a eulogy
though ltry to remain at large

They're insisting that our

love must have a eulogy
They're insisting that our

love must have a eulogy
Why do I save all this madness
here in the nightstand drawer

There to haunt

upon my shoulders
here in the nightstand drawer

There to haunt

upon my shoulders
Babyl know, I'd be luckier
to walk around everywhere I go
With this blind and broken heart

That sleeps beneath my lapel
to walk around everywhere I go
With this blind and broken heart

That sleeps beneath my lapel
With this blind and broken heart

That sleeps beneath my lapel
Instead these blue valentines
to remind me of my cardinal sin
I can never wash the guilt or

get these bloodstains off my hands
to remind me of my cardinal sin

I can never wash the guilt or

get these bloodstains off my hands
I can never wash the guilt or

get these bloodstains off my hands
And I cut my bleedin heart out
every night, and I'm gonna die

just a little more,

On each St. Valentine's day
every night, and I'm gonna die

just a little more,

On each St. Valentine's day
Don't you remember

I promised I would write you

These blue valentines
