Lyrics The Walkmen

The Walkmen

Stranded

Throw another dime in me my friend

And I'll sing a song I know for thee

You don't want me

You can tell me

I'm the bigger man here

Oh it's true

You're all prettier now

Than the last time

But the words aren't coming through

And I'm stranded and I'm starry-eyed

Oh why, won't you wash out of me

There's broken glass all around my feet

Laid my plans so carelessly

What's the story

With my old friends

Drunk and lonely

To a man

How I love 'em all

As the days slip by

And they're all following my lead

Oh why, does the rain fall o'er

When I'm stranded and I'm starry-eyed
