Howl Lyrics by The Gaslight Anthem

Handwritten

2012

[Refrain]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
[Verse 1]
Hey, wake it up, hey, shake it out
Does anything still move you since you're educated now?
And all grown up and traveled so well
Do you still hear the sound of the thunder
While you lie up by yourself?
[Chorus]
Like you waited on his call
And made your plans for great escapes
And there used to be a movement
In the way your dress would wave
From your hips on down like electric through the ground
[Refrain]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
[Verse 2]
Now do you blow it out come Friday night?
See if you wanna, you can find me
On the hood under the moonlight
Radio, oh radio
Do you believe there’s still some magic left
Somewhere inside our souls?
[Chorus]
Like I waited on your call
And made my plans to share my name
And I love the country movement
In the way your dress would wave
From your hips on down like electric through the ground
[Outro]
Sound of the cars rushing the rain on the boulevard
In this city by the sea that has always haunted me
And belonged to me somehow, bless your waters and your doubts
Bless your waters, bless your doubts
