lyrics

You - you look so beautiful tonight.
Your eyes see right through me, your smile holds off the morning light.
And then you started talking, and you put your hand in mine.
And I know that I can’t say it, but I’m so happy I could die.

And you know I want to kiss you babe,
But my morals get in the way.
But I really love just talking to you,
Could talk to you for the rest of my days.

Or ‘til you’re sober.
Or ‘til you’re sober.
So happy I could die in your arms tonight.

And we talk about your hands, about your poems and your plans.
Talk about your family, about how happy you’re going to be.
And I keep on looking around me, are you really talking to me?
But something in your eyes has gone, and I know you can see.

And I’m remembering something you asked me babe,
Something you told me to remind you of.
Guess I always knew I’d fail you babe.
Oh they kill me, these things I cannot do.

‘Cause now I’m sober.
‘Cause now I’ m sober.
So happy I could have died, in your arms that night.
