Dirty Leaves Lyrics & Chords By Mariachi El Bronx

I never wanted to admit to this,
but my love wasn't true.
I rescue the lonely,
because I'm lonely too.
And the way you smile,
the way you laugh,
reminds me of myself.
Before I fell apart,
like a drug infected heart.

All along in a city by the sea,
dirty leaves fall around.
All alone and suddenly it seems,
dirty leaves fall for you and me.

I never wanted your heart to break,
but we still knew it would.
Impossible to save,
but did what I could.

I replaced your tears,
your loneliness,
with cigarettes and wine.
But you needed more and we ran out of time...
Now your love is gone.

All along in a city by the sea,
dirty leaves fall around.
All alone and suddenly it seems,
dirty leaves fall for you and me.


And once again I'm torn between,
saving you or saving me.
That's why I begged you not to stay
any longer than you should.
Because I always knew you would,
and now it builds more every day.
Until you're just an object in my way,
choking on the words I never wanted you to say.

All along in a city by the sea,
dirty leaves fall around.
All alone and suddenly it seems,
dirty leaves fall for you and me.
