The Walkmen - I Lost You Lyrics

Drive on
Drive on
The highway's bright and long
The river's overflowing
The houses burning down

Drive on
Drive on
The engine hums along
We kiss goodbye and drank up
Some mouths before our tongues
We kiss goodbye and drank up
I'll miss you when you're gone

So throw me a line
So throw me a line

The windows are shaking and so are my bones
The world's going 'round
Throw me a rope

The trumpet and trombone
Still echoing in the hall
And bells ringing along the dam

So hang onto me
Hang onto me
The world's going 'round
And time's cutting out
The headlights are stinging all over the road
Throw me a rope
Throw me a rope

I knew you when I was young

I wish you were still along
I waited a long time
All for you
I waited a long time
I lost you

I was sleeping in the backseat
When I got home

I lost you
