Send "Blue Valentines" Ringtone to Cell

She sends me blue valentines
All the way from Philidelphia
To mark the anniversary
Of someone that I used to me
Feels like a warrant is out for my arrest
Baby you got me checking in my rearview mirror
That's why I'm always on the run
That's why I changed my name
I didn't think you'd ever find me here
To send me blue valentines

Like half forgotten dreams
Like a pebble in my shoe
As I walk these streets
The ghost of your memory
Baby, it's a thistle and a kiss
It's the burglar that can break a roses neck
It's the tattooed broken promise
I gotta hide beneath my sleeve
I'm gonna see you every time I turn my back

Send me blue valentines
Though I try to remain at large
They're insisting that our love must have a eulogy
Why do I save all this madness
Here in a nightstand drawer
There to haunt upon my shoulders
Baby, I know
I'd be luckier to walk around everywhere I go
With this blind and broken heart that sleeps beneath my lapel

Instead, these blue valentines
To remind me of my cardinal sin
I can never wash the guilt
Or get these bloodstains off my hands
It takes a whole lot of whiskey
To make these nightmares go away
I cut my bleedin' heart out every night
And I'm gonna die just a little more
Each St. Valentine's Day
Don't you remember I promised I would write you
These blue valentines, blue valentines, blue valentines
