lirik lagu nathan asher and the infantry - james
[verse 1]
james comes in with an old postcard face in his hand
saying “someday she’ll finally catch me
try and make me an honest man”
the nights are sticky hot in june
we stay up late, screaming at the moon
bottle turned on its side
cutting holes in the reservation night
you’re my best friend
don’t lie
don’t cry
don’t die, never die
they made us walk the plank
the last of the straight~laced gang
fell away back in ’98
we said we’d rob a bank
but pirates off the cape could never take
the jewels we have given away by mistake
[refrain]
they’ll never take away
what you meant to me, james
[verse 2]
i could never stay in one place
but f~ck you, man, it’s not my fault
thought i was following the moon
was only a stone thrown up from a catapult
it led me up and over the wall
the mayor’s daughter in the banquet hall
saw him back inside my childhood home
where these ghosts should know to leave me alone
you’re worthless
you don’t know
you don’t show
don’t go, never go
they drugged us in our sleep
and took away the saving grace
of our heavy dreams
a preacher or a priest
give the reasons for these skin knees
at least they let us keep the things
that they couldn’t see
[refrain]
they’ll never take away
what you meant to me, james
[verse 3]
let’s go down to the river a little bit further
don’t throw up here, come on, let’s go
you put me on your back
and sag under the heavy load
i was lying there, [?]
i feel tired, throw me in the back seat
throwing up on the side of the car
windows down so i can shatter the stars
i know you, i know your f~ckin’ name
you were watching back in ’98
cold stars in a cold, cold sp~ce
you were gone before my birthday cake
in a coffin reaching up for you
i come crawling from a coffin too
all the oceans and heavy rain
every trainwreck and every train
[refrain]
could never take away
could never take away
what you meant to me, james
