Heather Valley - Lovejoy (acoustic) Lyrics

Drove down to Lovejoy
Slow death around me
Took the border at the City of Light
Would have done anything that night

Turned onto Moreland
Saw you as I came around
Emerging out of yellow light
In your old Levis

You smelled of whiskey
Same old affliction
Yeah, you hurt me

You took me up to your room
And gave me gifts you had stolen
How'd you get your crooked smile to look so even?

You took me up to your room
Gave me gifts you had stolen
How'd you get your crooked smile to look so genuine?

I still dream about those holy walls
Soap and sheep's clothing
I will never forget
Your gift of illusion

Have you ever been so tired of lonely
Love makes you exhausted
I felt safe with you
But honey, I wasn't

When I tell the story
I leave out how I love you
When I tell the story
I leave out how I love you
