Lyrics

[Chorus]
Stop heading for the door
Stop heading for the car you gave me
I can't apologise
I can't apologise you ain't there
I'm in it for the night
I'm in it for the night we had here
[Verse 1]
You know it don't feel right
If ever there's a time
If ever there's a time that ain't fair
I can't afford a lie
I can't afford to lay the night down
You're way too drunk to drive
You're way too drunk to drive, just stay there
You know it's just a fight
I know you wanna ride
[Verse 2]
If you're never getting out of this mood
Forget you
Stop drinking all your old man's booze
He'll get you
He'll get you
Stop looking for a knife
Stop looking through the drawer, it ain't there
I can't afford a lie
I can't afford to lay the night down
You're way too drunk to drive
You're way too drunk to drive, just stay there
You know it don't feel right
[Chorus]
Stop heading for the door
Stop heading for the car you gave me
I can't apologise
I can't apologise you ain't there
I'm in it for the night
I'm in it for the night we have here
You know it's just a fight
I know you wanna ride
I know you won the right
