The White Stripes - A Martyr For My Love For You[00:00:16]
She was sixteen and six feet tall[00:00:27]
in a crowd of teenagers comin' out of the zoo[00:00:30]
She stumbled started to slip and fall[00:00:33]
teeter-tottered on the top of patent leather shoes[00:00:35]
I happened to catch her and said,[00:00:39]
"maybe these ruby shoes are a little cumbersome for you"[00:00:41]
Maybe for you, now[00:00:49]
But not as shaky as I must have seemed[00:00:56]
talkin' junk through her giggle -- little teenage dream[00:00:58]
And on the phone I could not compete[00:01:01]
my dumb-love fake competence was getting weak[00:01:03]
For a sec' I thought I sounded sweet[00:01:07]
but sure 'nough in a gruff, faint voice[00:01:09]
I heard myself speak[00:01:11]
I could stay a while[00:01:19]
but sooner or later I'll break your smile[00:01:21]
And I can tell a joke[00:01:24]
but one of these days I'm bound to choke[00:01:26]
And we could share a kiss[00:01:29]
but I feel like I can't go through with this[00:01:31]
And I bet we could build a home[00:01:34]
but I know the right thing for me to do[00:01:36]
Is to leave you alone[00:01:41]
Leave you alone, now[00:01:48]
I'm beginning to like you[00:02:17]
so you probably won't get what I'm going to do[00:02:19]
I'm walkin' away from you[00:02:23]
it probably don't make much sense to you[00:02:25]
But I'm trying to save you[00:02:28]
from all of the things that I'll probably say or do[00:02:30]
Probably do[00:02:38]
I could stay a while[00:02:46]
but sooner or later I'll break your smile[00:02:47]
And I can tell a joke[00:02:52]
but one of these days I'm bound to choke[00:02:54]
And we might share a kiss[00:02:57]
but I feel like a can't go through with this[00:02:59]
And I bet we could build a home[00:03:02]
but I know the right thing for me to do[00:03:04]
Is to leave you alone[00:03:10]
Leave you alone, now[00:03:16]
You probably call me a fool[00:03:24]
and say I'm doin' exactly what a coward would do[00:03:26]
And I'm beginning to like you[00:03:30]
it's a shame; what a lame way to live[00:03:32]
how can i do[00:03:33]
and how could i would preciate what i do[00:03:35]
A martyr for my love for you[00:03:43]
A martyr for my love for you[00:03:49]
A martyr for my love for you[00:03:54]
A martyr for my love for you[00:04:00]
