lyrics

You'll put dead flowers on my grave,
and I'll put your picture in my broken frame.
You'll fall asleep. I'll be awake,
or I'll let you hold me when I shake.

Put your hand into my fevered head.
Did I crawl home to our bed?
Did I ask if you could stay?
I don't remember what I said.

But we'll only have Tennessee.
Love me like a once more, was it three times, baby?
Love me like we never have to leave.
Give me something to run with, baby, please.

And I don't remember the Chelsea Hotel,
and I don't remember better days,
but I know that I ain't moving on,
and I know this ache ain't going away.

But you must remember this:
a kiss is just a kiss.
A sigh is just a sigh,
and the fundamental things apply
as time goes by.

But we'll only have Tennessee.
Love me like a once more, was it three times, darling?
Love me like we never have to leave.
Give me something to run with, baby, please.
Give me something to run with, baby, please.
Give me something to run with, baby, please.
Give me something to run with, baby, please.
