Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do you mind if I sit down next to you?
Yeah, I remember you from school
You seem to have a good heart
Way back then you were gonna make it big
But it's divorce now, with a couple kids
That brings you back to these parts
[Verse 2]
Everybody stumbles
Everybody hits the ground
No use runnin' scared
When those changes come around
'Cause you don't know what might
Be waitin' for you tonight
[Verse 3]
You really shouldn't drive
You've had too much to drink
You shouldn't be alone
Where all you're gonna do is think
So take my number, or I can take you home
[Verse 4]
We can find a cup of coffee
We can sit all night and talk
There's a diner always open just around the block
So take my number, or I can take you home
[Verse 5]
All those dreams that were gonna set us free
What did we ever know at 23
About what we really want?
[Verse 6]
Everybody's got a fire that's always gonna burn
No way to put it out, all we ever do is learn
And you don't what might be waitin' for you tonight
[Verse 7]
You really shouldn't drive
You've had too much to drink
You shouldn't be alone
Where all you're gonna do is think
So take my number, or I can take you home
[Verse 8]
We can find a cup of coffee
We can sit all night and talk
There's a diner always open just around the block
So take my number, or I can take you home
[Verse 9]
Take you home, take you home
Take you home, I can take you home
[Verse 10]
Do you mind if I sit down next to you?
Well I remember you from school
You seem to have a real good heart
[Verse 11]
Oh, you really shouldn't drive
You've had too much to drink
You shouldn't be alone
Where all you're gonna do is think
Take my number, or I can take you home
[Verse 12]
We can find a cup of coffee
We can sit all night and talk
There's a diner always open just around the block
Take my number, or I can take you home
[Verse 13]
Uh, huh, huh
Take my number, only I can take you home
