Night Like This

I didn't know what I was doin', never backed down anyway

Asked what you were drinkin' and you said you didn't care

And I lost all of my ambition in my youth, afraid to die

Lookin' back at who I was, I really don't know why

Give me someone now, honey

Dreams of you dancin' in the rain

Yeah, we hit the ground runnin'

And things will never be the same

Standin' on a corner on a night like this

'Cause I'm too scared to go inside and give you someone to miss

Maybe you'll handle this

I sat down at the table, eyes rollin' in my head

A shiver and a tremble and a little black dress

You know just what I wanted

Scotch on the rocks and ice in my soul

I just can't tell if you're listenin', oh

So look in my eyes, I'm tryin' to find

Something to hide behind

Standin' on the corner on a night like this

'Cause I'm too scared to go inside and give you someone to miss

And when we wait-wait-waited

Oh, and I'm really glad we did

I've waited all my life for a night like this

I'll never wait again

And I, I never trusted easily

I've been on the floor, I've been on my face and I skinned my knees

I'm puttin' faith in my self worth, I hope you realize

In what I can give and just what I want, I'm tired of tryin' to hide

Standin' on the corner on a night like this

'Cause I'm too scared to go inside and give you someone to miss

And when we wait-wait-waited

Oh, and I'm really glad we did

I've waited all my life for a night like this

I'll never wait again
