History Books (feat. Bruce Springsteen)

What's that you say? I knew you when? You don't look too much like my friend Those history books Filled up with crooks Stories I don't want to read again I've tried to live one thousand years from here When I think of it now, it just brings me down When I think of it now And when I think of it now, it just brings me down When I think of you now I'm keeping time One day goes by I try to live til the next one But these history books Full of haunted looks From people I don't want to see again Cause I learned to live, but they try to hold me here You just remind me of the Nights of smoke and dirty jokes Darkened rooms with lonely ghosts They were beautiful some time ago But time keeps rollin' us on
