"Dirty Looks" Lyrics

He was caught up in a gunfight
And as she wept over his grave
I stood by to whisper my condolences to the departed
Though I know it's a long way from the truth
I say I know what you're going through
The bride, the broken hearted
She said it's not right that those men came and shot him down
Leaving me
Said baby you just call my name
If there's anything you need

Miss, poor love, please dry your eyes
Cause I don't know what I would if it meant
Losing you, losing you tonight girl Burn it down for all our lives
Cause you got to learn dirty looks, be a crook
Cause the books won't help you no more

In the middle of the sunset
I look up to see the sky
Burning red with in the embers of our empty lives
And it matches the hate behind your eyes
When you're staring down into mine
Can you forgive what he became?
Is it too much not to have known??
Well he never told you everything
I have the secrets, the secrets you don't know

Miss, poor love, please dry your eyes
Cause I don't know what I would if it meant
Losing you, losing you tonight girl Burn it down for all our lives
Cause you got to learn dirty looks, be a crook
Cause the books won't help you no more
Miss, poor love, please dry your eyes
Cause I don't know what I would if it meant
Losing you, losing you tonight girl Burn it down for all our lives
Cause you got to learn dirty looks, be a crook
Cause the books won't help you no more
