The Gaslight Anthem - Miles Davis & The Cool lyrics

Like Miles Davis, I've been swayed by the cool There's just something 'bout the summertime, there's just something 'bout the moon So I laid a kiss on a stone, tossed it upside your window by the roof Before you change your mind, Miles, bring in the cool Honey, put on your red dress and your diamond-soled shoes Climb on out from that window, climb on out of your room 'Cause I never had a good thing and I always had the blues But I heard that you always kinda wondered, Miles, strike up the cool Don't wait too long to come home My, how the years and our youth pa**ed on Don't wait too long to come home I will leave the front light on And the night is our own Don't wait too long Like poor Mr. Pitiful, I can't turn you loose You move like a dream I had, I woke up sweating in my room But your mama's got plans and your daddy's aim is true She never understood that it ain't no good, papa never heard the cool So now I've got up my nerve and found me a stone With a flick of the wrist and a turn of the key, you'll just fall in my arms And don't wait too long to come home My, how the years and our youth pa**ed on Don't wait too long to come home I will leave the front light on And the night is our own Don't wait too long So why don't you sing to me on this long drive home And let the sound of your voice sway sweet and slow As we go down, down, down from our youth to the ground Down, down, down from our youth to the ground We might always be blue Jackson Don't wait too long to come home My, how the years and our youth pa**ed on Don't wait too long to come home I will leave the front light on No, don't wait too long to come home My, how the years and our youth pa**ed on Don't wait too long to come home I will leave the front light on As we go down, down, down from our youth to the ground Down, down, down from our youth to the ground Down, down, down from our youth to the ground Down, down, down, down, down
