When the morning came I was up before first light

And your bed was made, must have cut out sometime last night

My heart beat started pounding out rhythm in my brain

A voice from deep inside said you've got to be insane

Everyone knows how this old story goes

So I got in that taxi; drank my conscience away

If you're gonna be there, be there

If you're gonna stay, stay tonight

Start livin', out with the old, I'm all lit up

Must be the good life

I went to your friend's house and begged you to open the door

With your hands on your hips you spoke while I sat down on that floor

Two dishes in the kitchen sink, the way you treat me when you drink

Don't look so superior when you give your opinion

Don't think I don't know how you act on your own

And just who are those names on your cell phone anyway?

If you're gonna be there, be there

If you're gonna stay, stay tonight

Start livin', out with the old, I'm all lit up

Must be the good life

You're a cool breeze on the setting sun

New Year's, The 4th, wrapped into one

You make me want to be someone that you could look up to

If you're gonna be there, be there

If you're gonna stay, stay tonight

Start livin', out with the old, I'm all lit up

Must be the good life

Come on get love

Come on and try

Come on now, what are you waiting for?

Come on get love

Come on and try

Come on now, what are you waiting for?

Come on get love

Come on and try

Come on now, what are you waiting for?

Come on get love

Come on and try

Come on now, what are you waiting for?
