Lyrics Belle Of The Boulevard - Acoustic - 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

The

Is
saving
you
Don't
turn

Don't

dry

Life
is
always

let
me
dry
your
eyes,
dry
your
eyes
Don't
turn

Let
me
dry
your
eyes,
dry
your
eyes
Don't
be
afraid,
but
keep
it
all
inside,
