Yeah Sapphire - The Hold Steady

Yeah, Sapphire

I’m sick and I’m tired and I’m fried

And you gotta believe me

Yeah, Sapphire

If I cross myself when I come

Would you maybe receive me?

Yeah, Sapphire

You were feisty at first

But I broke you and I showed you the tempo

Sacramento

It swung at us first

But it ended up going down gentle

Sapphire, if Cheyenne’s too small

We’ll haul it all back to St. Paul

I was just about to call you

When you called

Yeah, Sapphire

I know the last time we touched

I came on a bit rough, please forgive me

Yeah, Sapphire

After you left, it was a big sketchy mess

They almost killed me

Sapphire, if Cheyenne’s too small

We’ll haul it all back to St. Paul

I was just about to call you

When you called

Sapphire, if St. Paul don’t call

We’ve always got Aberdeen

Cause dreams they seem to cost money

But money costs some dreams

It went just as you predicted

I swear there must be something in your dreams

It all went down exactly like your visions

And I know you said don’t call until I’m clean

I’m not drunk, I’m cut

I’m gushing blood

And I need someone to come and pick me up

I was a skeptic at first, but these miracles work

I was a skeptic at first, but these miracles work

I was a skeptic at first, but these miracles work

I was a skeptic at first, but these miracles work
