Miles Davis & The Cool Lyrics - The '59 Sound - The Gaslight Anthem

Like Miles Davis, I've been swayed by the cool 

There's just something 'bout the summertime, 

there's just something 'bout the moon 

So I laid a kiss on the stone, 

tossed it upside your window by the roof 

Before you change your mind, 

Miles, bring in the cool 

Honey, put on your red dress and your diamond soled shoes 

Climb on out from that window, climb on out of your room 

Cause I've never had a good thing, and I always had the blues 

But I heard that you always kinda wondered, Miles, strike up the cool 

Don't wait too long to come home 

My, how the years and our youth pass on 

Don't wait too long to come home 

I will leave the front light on 

And the night is our own 

Don't wait too long

Like poor Mr. Pitiful, I can't turn you loose 

You move like a dream I had, I woke up sweating in my room 

But your mama's got plans and your daddy's aim is true 

She never understood that it ain't no good, 

papa never heard the cool 

So now I've got up my nerve and found me a stone 

With a flick of the wrist and a turn of the key, 

you'll just fall in my arms 

And don't wait too long to come home 

My, how the years and our youth pass on 

Don't wait too long to come home 

I will leave the front light on 

And the night is our own 

Don't wait too long 

So why don't you sing to me on this long drive home 

And let the sound of your voice sway sweet and slow 

As we go down, down, down from our youth to the ground 

Down, down, down from our youth to the ground

Don't wait too long to come home 

My, how the years and our youth pass on 

Don't wait too long to come home 

I will leave the front light on 

No, don't wait too long to come home 

My, how the years and our youth pass on 

Don't wait too long to come home 

I will leave the front light on 

As we go down, down, down from our youth to the ground 

Down, down, down from our youth to the ground 

Down, down, down from our youth to the ground 

Down, down, down, down, down
