Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Drink up, baby
Stay up all night
Things you could do
You won't, but you might
[Verse 2]
The potential you'll be
You'll never see
Promises you'll only make
[Verse 3]
Drink up with me now
And forget all about
Pressure of days
Do what I say
And I'll make you okay
And drive them away
The image is stuck in your head
[Verse 4]
People's you've been before that you don't want around anymore
That push and shove won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
[Verse 5]
Drink up, baby
Look at the stars
And I'll kiss you again
Between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there
Hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught
[Verse 6]
Drink up one more time
And i'll make you mine
And keep you apart
Deep in my heart
Separate from the rest
Where I like you the best
Keep the things you forgot
[Verse 7]
People that you've been before that you don't want around anymore
That push and shove won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
