Do you fancy a drink |
|
I know a place called the Brink |
|
Do you wanna go there |
|
I can buzz off your smile |
|
And there may be people you know there |
|
They've got no rule of thumb |
|
So on the counter I strum |
|
With my fingers |
|
And I adore the surprise |
|
Of tomorrows sunrise |
|
So I linger |
|
And I raise a glass, a smile or two |
|
This stuff strips the light from your bones |
|
And I would like to stay with you |
|
But I leave alone |
|
You're the guy on the bus |
|
Who's not quite one of us |
|
You hear laughter |
|
And they won't let you in |
|
'Cause everyone knows what you're after |
|
So you wear the disguise |
|
Of your brilliant ties |
|
Drenched in flamboyance |
|
And you sit by the bar |
|
Much to everyone elses annoyance |
|
And I raise a glass, a smile or two |
|
This stuff strips the light from your bones |
|
And I would like to leave with you |
|
But I stay alone |
|
And I raise a glass, a smile or two |
|
This stuff strips the light from your bones |
|
And I would like to leave with you |
|
But this stuff strips the light |
|
This stuff strips the light |
|
This stuff strips the light |
|
From your bones |
|
From your bones |
