lyrics

After clawing at life for so long I know
How to give up
How to never give up anything

After dancing with you many times i know
Where my foot goes
How to hold you and not spill my drink

The night won’t hate
Quite like the day
So in the dark I promise

I would wait, I would wait tables the rest of my life
And I would take oh I would take real estate classes at night

I’d build a fire
From all of these songs
At least keep us warm if you won’t sing along
And we could make peace
With the piece of ourselves
That lives just to drink but only top shelf

There’s a bar open just down the street from here
Look in my eyes and we instantly find ourselves there
There’s a booth in the corner that knows our names
We take our seats and it takes us the rest of the way

The night won’t hate
Quite like the day
So in the dark I promise

I would wait, I would wait tables the rest of my life
And I would take oh I would take real estate classes at night

I’d build a fire
From all of these songs
At least keep us warm if you won’t sing along
And we could make peace
With the piece of ourselves
That lives just to drink but only top shelf
