------------------------------------------
The White Stripes - A martyr for my love for you
------------------------------------------

She was sixteen and six feet tall
In a crowd of teenagers cominŽ out of the zoo
She stumbled started to slip and fall
Teeter-tottered on the top of patent leather shoes
I happened to catch her and said,
"maybe these ruby shoes are a little cumbersome for you"

Maybe for you, now

But not as shaky as I must have seemed
TalkinŽ junk through her giggle, little teenage dream
And on the phone I could not compete
My dumb-love fake competence was getting weak
For a secŽ I thought I sounded sweet
But sure Žnough in a gruff, faint voice
I heard myself speak

[Chorus:]
I could stay a while
But sooner or later IŽll break your smile
And I can tell a joke
But one of these days IŽm bound to choke
And we could share a kiss
But I feel like I canŽt go through with this
And I bet we could build a home
But I know the right thing for me to do
Is to leave you alone

Leave you alone, now

IŽm beginning to like you
So you probably wonŽt get what IŽm going to do
IŽm walkinŽ away from you
It probably donŽt make much sense to you
But IŽm trying to save you
From all of the things that IŽll probably say or do

IŽll probably do

[Chorus:]
I could stay a while
But sooner or later IŽll break your smile
And I can tell a joke
But one of these days IŽm bound to choke
And we might share a kiss
But I feel like a canŽt go through with this
And I bet we could build a home
But I know the right thing for me to do
Is to leave you alone

Leave you alone, now

YouŽll probably call me a fool
And say IŽm doinŽ exactly what a coward would do
And IŽm beginning to like you
What a shame itŽs a lame way to live
But what can I do?
I hope you appreciate what I do

IŽm a martyr for my love for you
A martyr for my love for you, now
A martyr for my love for you
A martyr for my love for you
