Jerome

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was seventeen, my father said to me A wealthy man had the things I wanted Coal miner, diamond ring, the house he built for me I made a promise to keep them haunted in my [Pre-Chorus] Blue dress, satin neck Taking every piece of my soul Blue dress, faded black Look me in my eyes as they close [Chorus] Jerome, Jerome Jerome, oh, why you treat me so cold? Jerome, Jerome Jerome, the only love I've ever known [Verse 2] He was a quiet man with bloodstains on his hands The silver kissed him with scars so heavy I waited patiently, harmonics on reprieve The desert echoes that drove me crazy in my [Pre-Chorus] Blue dress, satin neck Taking every piece of my soul Blue dress, faded black Look me in my eyes as they close [Chorus] Jerome, Jerome Jerome, oh, why you treat me so cold? Jerome, Jerome Jerome, the only love I've ever known [Post-Chorus] Hold me (Hold), I'm not breathing Hold me (Hold), I'm not breathing [Bridge] Taking every piece of my soul Blue dress, faded black Look me in my eyes as they close [Chorus] Jerome, Jerome Jerome, oh, why you treat me so cold? Jerome, Jerome Jerome, the only love I've ever known [Post-Chorus] Hold me, I'm not breathing Hold me, I'm not breathing Hold me, I'm not breathing [Outro] Hold me (Hold), I'm not breathing Hold me (Hold), I'm not breathing Hold me (Hold), I'm not breathing (Hold)
