Bell Of The Boulevard Lyrics - Dashboard Confessional

Down in a local bar out on the Boulevard 

The sound of an old guitar 

Is saving you from sinking 

It's a long way down, it's a long way 

Back like you never broke, you tell a dirty joke 

He touches your leg and thinks he's getting close 

For now you let him 

Just this once, just for now, and just like that it's over 

Don't turn away, dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Don't be afraid, but keep it all inside, all inside 

When you fall apart, dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Life is always hard for the Belle of the Boulevard 

In all your silver rings, in all your silken things 

That song you softly sing 

Is keeping you from breaking 

It's a long way down, it's a long way 

Back here you never lost, you shake the shivers off 

You take a drink to get your courage up 

Can you believe it? 

Just this once, just for now, and just like that it's over 

Don't turn away, dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Don't be afraid, oh keep it all inside, all inside 

When you fall apart, dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Life is always hard for the Belle of the Boulevard 

Please hold on, it's alright 

Please hold on, it's alright 

Please hold on 

Down in a local bar out on the boulevard 

The sound of an old guitar 

Is saving you 

Don't turn away, dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Don't be afraid, but keep it all inside, all inside 

When you fall apart, dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Life is always hard, let me dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Don't turn turn away 

Let me dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Don't be afraid, but keep it all inside, all inside 

When you fall apart, let me dry your eyes, dry your eyes 

Life is always hard for the Belle of the Boulevard
