Belle Of The Boulevard - 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 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
