Stranded

The Walkmen

Compositor: Fred Maroon / Hamilton Leithauser / Matt Barrick / Peter Bauer / The Walkmen / Walter Martin

Throw another dime in me my friend
And I'll sing a song I know for thee
You don't want me
You can tell me
I'm the bigger man here
Oh it's true
You're all prettier now
Than the last time
But the words aren't coming through
And I'm stranded and I'm starry-eyed

Oh why, oh she wash out of me

There's broken glass all around my feet
Laid my plan so carelessly
What's the story
With my old friends
Drunk and lonely
To men
How I love 'em all
As the days slip by
And they're all following my lead

Oh why, does the rain fall cold
When I'm stranded and I'm starry-eyed
