Have Mercy Lyrics

When I first met you

I was only passing through

But I was mesmerized

I was enthralled by you

A kiss of cherry

You numbed me like a Percocet

Peeled back my layers

Like the deck that ate my old cassette

When we sang sad, sad songs

All night long

I could've stayed forever

But I blinked and you were gone

Go on ahead

I'm someone you will soon forget

In just a moment

I'm another lucky transient

When all the minutes turn to hours

Turn to days and weeks

I'll lie in waiting

For the day you will return to me

When we'll sing sad, sad songs

All night long

I wanna have you forever

Promise me you won't be long

Have mercy

I don't mean to be overbearing

But I'm still seeing you in my dreams

I'd give you anything to haunt me

I wish you would come back to me

I don't mean to be overbearing

I just can't get you out my dreams

Lord knows I wish that you would haunt me

But that's impossible it seems

Yeah that's impossible it seems

And we sang sad, sad songs

All night long

We sang sad, sad songs

Do you remember?

When we sang sad, sad songs

All night long

We sang sad, sad songs

Do you remember that?
