The Gaslight Anthem - Sweet Morphine Lyrics
(Verse)Oh, my darling, you are the restless seaWith your black heart raging over meAs the blue skies see the same troubles as weTo be true, I love the restless seaThere are three things that never satisfyYour brain, your heart, and mineBut I will hold you in my arms with a rest and sorrow ?Underneath, bound in me tonight(Chorus)By now you must have found better than meI'm sure Jupiter and opiates have charmed you off your feetBy now, I'm sure you've gotten over meWhile you're kissing crowns of godsI'll be crawling on my kneesSweet morphine, sweet morphine(Verse 2)And yes I've come to know, you are the endless nightHigh above my love and my constellation lightWaving your fingertips asleepOver the dark of the place over meEndless night, I know you were over me(Chorus)By now you must have found better than meI'm sure Jupiter and opiates have charmed you off your feetBy now, I'm sure you've gotten over meWhile you're kissing crowns of godsI'll be crawling on my kneesSweet morphine, sweet morphine(Interlude)(Chorus)By now you must have found better than meI'm sure Jupiter and opiates have charmed you off your feetBy now, I'm sure you've gotten over meWhile you're kissing crowns of godsI'll be crawling on my kneesSweet morphine, sweet morphine
