The White Stripes - A martyr for my love for you Lyrics
Album: Icky Thump



She was sixteen and six feet tall
in a crowd of teenagers comin' out of the zoo
She stumbled started to slip and fall
teeter-tottered on the top of patent leather shoes
I happened to catch her and said,
"maybe these ruby shoes are a little cumbersome for you"

Maybe for you, now

But not as shaky as I must have seemed
talkin' junk through her giggle -- little teenage dream
And on the phone I could not compete
my dumb-love fake competence was getting weak
For a sec' I thought I sounded sweet
but sure 'nough in a gruff, faint voice
I heard myself speak

I could stay a while
but sooner or later I'll break your smile
And I can tell a joke
but one of these days I'm bound to choke
And we could share a kiss
but I feel like I can't go through with this
And I bet we could build a home
but I know the right thing for me to do
Is to leave you alone

Leave you alone, now

I'm beginning to like you
so you probably won't get what I'm going to do
I'm walkin' away from you
it probably don't make much sense to you
But I'm trying to save you
from all of the things that I'll probably say or do

Probably do

I could stay a while
but sooner or later I'll break your smile
And I can tell a joke
but one of these days I'm bound to choke
And we might share a kiss
but I feel like a can't go through with this
And I bet we could build a home
but I know the right thing for me to do
Is to leave you alone

Leave you alone, now

You probably call me a fool
and say I'm doin' exactly what a coward would do
And I'm beginning to like you
it's a shame; what a lame way to live
But what can I co
I hope you appreciate what I do

On my martyr for my love for you
A martyr for my love for you, now
A martyr for my love for you
A martyr for my love for you

  1. Icky thump
  2. You don't know what love is (you just do as you're told)
  3. 300 mph torrential outpour blues
  4. Conquest
  5. Bone broke
  6. Prickly thorn, but sweetly worn
  7. St. andrew (this battle is in the air)
  8. Little cream soda
  9. Rag and bone
  10. I'm slowly turning into you
  11. A martyr for my love for you
  12. Catch hell blues
  13. Effect and cause
