The Killers - Miss Atomic Bomb Lyrics

The Killers – Miss Atomic Bomb Lyrics

You were standing with your girlfriends in the street
Falling back on forever
I wonder what you came to be
I was new in town, a boy with eager eyes
I never was a quitter
Oblivious to school girls lies
When I look back on those neon nights
You’ll never see the passage right
I feel the heat, I see the light

Miss Atomic Bomb

Making out we got the radio on
You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone
You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

Raising shadows in the moonlight
Through the desert on a hot night
And for a second there we won
Yeah, we were innocent and young

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Cast out of the night
And you’ve got a foolish heart
So you took your place, but the fall from grace
Was the hardest part

But this is like a dagger buried deep in your back
You run for cover, but you cant escape the second attack
your soul was innocent
she kissed him
and she painted it black
you should have seen your little face
burning for love
holding on for your life

Well all that I wanted was a little touch
A little tenderness and truth
I didn’t ask for much no
Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time

Miss Atomic Bomb
Making out we got the radio on
You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone
You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone

Raising shadows in the moonlight
Takin chances on a hot night
And for a second there we were
Yeah, we were innocent and young

The dust cloud has settled
And my eyes are clear
But sometimes your dreams have impact, I still hear

Miss Atomic Bomb
I’m standing here
Sweat on my skin
And this love that I cradle, is wearing thin

Miss Atomic Bomb
But I’m standing here
And you’re too late
Your shock wave whisper
has sealed your fate
