Pick up the phone I know you're there
|
It's almost closing time
|
& we can toss down one more shot
|
before last call
|
|
are you ok?
|
I swear to God
|
I gotta get out of this house
|
I miss the days when I'd just
|
not come home at all..
|
|
so, don't you cry, it'll give you lines
|
around your eyes
|
you gotta try not to live so much of
|
life alone.
|
& if I see you getting crazy by the bottom of the bottle
|
take me home, take me home, I'll take
|
you home
|
|
remember when we used to stumble
|
down the boulevard
|
from bar to bar until we couldn't stagger straight
|
it seemed like we would live forever,
|
life was not this hard
|
no we felt nothing much at all but it felt
|
great
|
|
so, don't you cry it'll give you lines
|
around your eyes
|
you gotta try not to live so much of
|
life alone
|
& if I see you getting crazy by the bottom of the bottle,
|
take you home, I'll take you home, I'll
|
take you home.
|
|
Things get better everyday you stay alive
|
then I'm amazed
|
every day
|
that the sun decides to rise
|
every minute, every hour, is another
|
chance to change
|
life is beautiful & terrible & strange.
|
|
so don't you cry, it'll give you lines around
|
your eyes
|
you gotta try not to live so much of life alone
|
& if i see you getting crazy by the bottom
|
of the bottle,
|
take you home, I'll take you home, I'll take you home.
|
|
now don't you cry, it'll give you lines around
|
your eyes
|
you gotta try not to live so much of life alone
|
& if you see me getting crazy by the bottom of the bottle,
|
take me home, take me home, take me home.
