Savannah Almost Killed Me - American Aquarium

Well Savannah almost killed me

With cheap beer and Irish whiskey

Singing songs loud and out of tune

She was a Bette Davis double

With diamonds on her knuckles

She knew every word to Born to Run

She was talking to some dead end

I said it looks like you could use a friend

Besides, this bar ain’t a place for a girl like you

So we set off into the streetlights

Two kids on a summer weeknight

Skipping rocks and howling at the moon

So let’s waste away tonight, let’s drink it down so fast

If only I could’ve found a way to make these moments last

She took hold of this shipwrecked heart

Now I’m fallin' again, I’m fallin' apart

We spent the better part of the evening

Stumbling through these streets and

Praying to god we found our way back home

And when the key hit the front door

There was a trail of clothes on the bedroom floor

You were falling asleep, you looked up and said…

«Let's waste away tonight, let’s drink it down so fast»

If only I could’ve found a way to make these moments last

You took hold of this shipwrecked heart

Now I’m fallin' again, I’m fallin' apart

Somebody tell Georgia I’m leaving

Tell her she’s always on my mind

Somebody tell George everything’s gonna be alright

Somebody tell Georgia goodbye

Goodbye

Tell her goodbye

Tell her goodnight

Tell her goodbye
