Lyrics

Woe Is Me

There's a girl that you should know

She was mine not so long ago

Had my number and we fell in love

She put me under and I got lost

Lost my nerve and I lost my head

Just about everything I had

Washed out in a windy sea

Couldn't see my hand in front of me

Woe is me

Woe is me

Hey, do you wanna walk with me

By the trees and the factories

Hey, do you wanna hop the fence

In the sleepy red sunset

There's a girl that you should know

She was mine not so long ago

Had my number and we fell in love

She put me under and I got lost

Woe is me

Woe is me

Woe is me

Woe is me

Now the street light bright and pale

As we sip our ginger ale

I kiss you by the blinking sign

Don't get heavy, let's be light

On and on

Our merry way

On and on

Our merry way

On and on

Our merry way

On and on

Our merry way
