(All rights by: SideOneDummy records)
Don't write me no more letters
My mailbox is full of bombs
Between you and the kooks on my block
I don't remember the good times
I wasn't there and you were kind
And my wife has some dogs in our yard
And I cannot hold a candle for every pretty girl
We were strangers many hours
And I missed you for so long
When we were lions, lovers in combat
Faded like your name on those jeans that I burned
But I am older now
And we did it when we were young
I am older now
And we did it when we were young
There are no reasons to believe
I buried my faith on the block
With your heart and your clothes
When I find
I don't feel you or recall
I'll put your bones out in the yard
Someone else to be called and called by
And I cannot hold a candle for every pretty girl
We were strangers many hours
And I missed you for so long
When we were lions, lovers in combat
Faded like your name on those jeans that I burned
But I am older now
And we did it when we were young
I am older now
And we did it when we were young
i don't get why people get mad if someone is here from one tree hill? one tree hill is exposing great songs, and if something likes the song and heard it on the show then good for them. they're here because they like the song and they just happened to hear it on one tree hill. one tree hill has opened a door of music for me and now i'm a big music person that i never was before. so i really just don't care if anyone has a problem with that.
Thank you One Tree Hill, for hooking me up with so much amazing music
I became a fan of Gaslight after seeing them live during the '59 Sound days. There are still so many people who hold this song closer to themselves than I do and heard it playing on One Tree Hill or Covert Affairs (not sure what that is by the by). I am totally okay with that because when and where you hear the music doesn't matter, it's how much the music means to you that counts. Whether or not you were a fan all along doesn't matter, just try to enjoy the music.
one tree hill seriously give out some quality music that why i found this heard it on it and thought damnnn this is gooodd!
I am here because I want to be here, listening to great music. No matter where it came from or where you heard it, it is wonderful. That is why I'm here.
ONE TREE HILL
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙅🏽
My heart breakes at the line 'but I am older now'.. Yet I cannot stop listening to this song
I wonder how many people will start watching One three Hill because they hear this song is in it... If there is a band this great willing to let their song play in it, maybe that tv-show (i forgot the name again) is not that bad? :)
here because my dad gave me their albums..great band. Greetins from Italy
i don't know how i got here. oh yeah that's right, i typed it into the search bar.
this song is so beautiful, just something to sit and chill out to
Great song ❤
I am charmed with it, make me cry and not why
Amazing
Here because I cant find any bands that give me the chills when the song starts beause theyre just so damn amazing and theres nothing quite like them.
this is the fuckin greatest band out there these days saw them life 2 days ago in berlin omg i love them so much... their music is my reason to get up every monring. thank u so much brian fallon. ur my hero.
@hairynipplesac does it matter why we are here? what matters is we all love this song
90,000
I cant believe I've listened to this song that much...
I think people who like them, should be happy that OTH give them a chance to this band to be know.
(Sorry for my english ^^)
Has the gaslight ever made one Bad song or album ever? I mean, American Slang was a little rocky on some tunes, but all experimental stuff is; this song is the best. I really hope they come out with more soon :(
It doesn't matter what brought you here to listen to this band. If you think they're good in this track they're 100x better live. Experience it, you'll be a lifelong fan.
There should not be a dislike option to this song.
Just beautiful
I listen to this album whenever I drive home from college on friday nights. I look at my passenger seat hoping to find that one girl to fill that seat in my car and in my heart, LOL that probably has nothing to do with the song.
@ondank i know i was searching everywhere when i found it i went crazy so looking forward to the next season starts in england next week seriously can not wait!
Im here because my friend really likes them. they are pretty good. I have to listen to more to get a better feel for them though.
a stranger just told me about this :) music for my night then.
awsome, thanks for sharing
This is REAL frickin' music!
Here because of Jonah. Thank you.
i'm here because gaslight makes an 8 hour work day much, much more tolerable. seeing them this saturday with hot water music and rise against >_
Cannot believe how much i love this song!
Great song!
so just because you watch OTH and discover bands through the show means we aren't allowed to enjoy amazing music and lyrics? We're both fans of the band so let us listen to what we want, if OTH fans didn't find this band they wouldn't be doing as well as they are because OTH helped them get where they are today!
@GTAMADDOG Couldn't agree more. I hate the people that just like one song and say they like the band however, but regardless of how you find the band it doesn't make you any less of a fan either new or old. I heard them from my brother when he got their '59 sound album for a two for £5 deal three years back. Guess that makes me less of a fan because I didn't discover them myself. Jeesh, some people.
what a great song..
OTH!
@OmesStar actually it kinda does bcuz if it had not been for the show i would hv never heard of the song nor would i look it up
Magnifique 💖💖💖
i love this song. cant wait to see them in august
@trippettaa Same! one tree hill doesn't deserve such a great song...
This sounds like it could be a song from The Killers. Great song
This One Tree Hill band is awesome!
i saw them live in dublin :D BRILLIANT :D
whoa you must feel so cool!
Oh this song, I love it.
F... great song!
One Tree Hill
@HUGHESY012
Same I had this stuck in my head and was desperately trying to remember the lyrics !
whats OTH???
im here cos i like the band.
Here as well because of OTH
i love this
@hairynipplesac
whats your problem , if people here of oth , it just means that oth gives you the chance to explore new music .is that not what we want ?
@wowbaggerish You're so rigth!
@annissisterhood
same here, and this song fits perfectly at the moment in the episode.
@lazylauren111 One Tree Hill , the tv show tis Epic!
People who really like this band/song heard it before it was on One Tree Hill...
I LIKE
thanks tree hill :]
Wow, he sounds like Bruce Springsteen AND Bono
love it
FUck! great fucking new song, Salud desde Mèxico city!!
here because of Covert Affairs!
here becasue Gaslight Anthem are the shit, and can't wait for the new album "Handwritten" in 2 months :)
thank you One Tree Hill:)
I've listened to this song maybe 100 times, and when press play, I always hope it will really last 7 minutes, but it always stops at 4:10 :(
I keep on trying!
Thanks for the post. FYI; Some of your lyrics are incorrect.-between you and the crooks on my block-when you were kind-every pretty gun( a reference to ww1)-faith in another block-called and calmed byjust saying.
Here because of One Tree Hill
@XDarXx what OTH?
@ohpicklesitsmatti true dat , been a gaslight fan sinse sink or swim , it like you shouldve of heard of this amazing band before that shitty show haha
@johnnydangerful
me too :)
@madssb Why aren't you happy that it has gotten more viewers?
@smcc360 They're not a one tree hill band.
It shouldn't matter how people found this. If they love it and appreciate it then who cares. Everyone needs to stop thinking they are so "indie" because they didnt hear this song on a television show. Get over yourselves.
Anyone know what the font for the words "American Slang" on the album cover are? I need to know for a project...Thanks in advance!
3 people are unable to discern Great Music.
what is the problem about discovering this song through OTH? The previous fans should be glad the show is spreading the band to people that didn't know them, everyone deserves the chance to discover good music, everyone who's here discovered it someway. I, for example, by oth and I'm proud of that, I'm brazilian so my chances of listening to this were really minimal otherwise. Stop being childish!

Wonderful post... but its " cannot hold a candle for every pretty gun".. not "girl"..this isnt just how it sounds to me.... this is what appears in the booklet for the CD. Support this band.. buy their albums... Best thing to come out of the music scene in this millenium
ONE TREE HILL !!
@bLitz72 Makes me wish i was that someone :P
what is OTH?
