I let you buy me a drink because the gig didn't pay much
I don't get to say much
Well, I'm tired anyway
I just nod
And smile
Say: oh yeah?
Once in a while
You say some shit and I just take the hit
And you say
I should stay
Well I could drink until I think you're all that
There's enough whisky in the bar
I could wake up in the morning with my head barely sore
And my heart totally intact
My heart totally intact
My heart totally intact
You could take a little break from being charming and ask me
Well, you know what you could ask me?
You could ask me anything
I could say
Something true
I could think
That I liked you
I could mean every word we could both feel heard
And I'd stay
I'd stay
I would drink until I think you're all that
There's enough whisky in the bar
I would wake up in the morning with my head barely sore
And my heart totally intact
My heart totally intact
My heart totally intact
I could tell you that the bass makes my pulse get faster
And the banjo breaks my heart, but
I love it anyway
It's too loud
You wouldn't hear
You'd just grin and
Down your beer
And I'd think about when you said, eight out of ten
And I stayed
I stayed
I've been waiting for something to come
I've been waiting for something to come
And it never does
But I can drink until I think you're all that
There's just enough whisky in the bar
I can wake up in the morning with my head barely sore
And my heart totally intact
My heart totally intact
My heart totally intact
